Þetta ljóð (ensk þýðing að vísu, en boðskapurinn kemst til skila :)) er að finna í hinnu fornu kínversku ljóðabók, Book of songs.

Clever men build cities,
Clever women topple them.
Beautiful, these clever women may be,
But they are owls and kites.
Women have long tongues
That lead to ruin.
Disorder does not come down from heaven;
It it produced by women.
