"The Honor of a Woman"

"All counsel resides with the woman; a man without a woman is without resourcefulness, he has no counsel whatsoever, especially in these generations where the Ari states that women are greater than men. A woman possesses a wonderful composure of mind."

"All counsel is with the woman; one who dwells without a woman dwells without joy and without blessing, he has no blessing, without goodness, he has no goodness at all, and also without resourcefulness, neither Torah nor wisdom, for Hashem gave the woman more intellect than the man."
