I read a quote by Elizabeth von Arnim the other day that said;
A woman’s tongue is a deadly weapon and the most difficult thing in the world to keep in order, and things slip off it with a facility nothing short of appalling.
What do you think about this quote? To me, this quote makes me think of those of us that have a quick, oftentimes sarcastic, wit. This speaks to our high intellect and the ability to process information at a lightning pace. It’s possible that some people might not get this quick wit, and may be offended if they don’t know what it means. Our brains are often too fast to even stop the words from coming out. There is no way for us to dictate who understands and who doesn’t.
But like it or not, women with quick wit and intelligence are sexy. After all, the most erotic part of the body is the brain because without the brain nothing is possible…not our fantasies, not our desires, not our bodily responses to stimuli. Nothing is possible without our magnificent brains.
So if you have a quick wit and words just roll off your tongue….Count yourself lucky. With you, there is never a dull moment in the conversation. You can talk about almost any subject matter. You listen as well as you speak. You know when to let the other person have the spotlight and talk about themselves. These are valuable skills. These are the skills of leaders and visionaries.
Be proud that you are a woman with a quick wit, intellectual and know what you want….
