“If you have been able to tame a lion, it is not your husband, a poor man, who will surpass you. Act exactly the same way with him and he will be yours forever. If you have been able to obtain these whiskers, it is because you have had the best qualities that a woman can have: patience and cunning. Take care of your husband like a child. Tame him like this lion that you have tamed. Be patient, cunning, intelligent. And he will never be able to separate from you. This is the secret to attaching a husband to yourself. No amulet would be worth it.”
