Some are so uncharitable as to think all women bad: and others are so credulous, as they believe they all are good. At first, woman was created man s equal; the difference was in the sex: other wise, they both were Man. If we argue from the text, that male and female made man: and so the man being put first, was worthier; I answer, so the evening and the morning were the first day: yet few will think, the night the better.

Additional quotes by Owen Feltham

Of all trees, I observe God hath chosen the vine, a low plant that creeps upon the helpful wall; of all beasts, the soft and patient lamb; of all fowls, the mild and guileless dove. Christ is the rose of the field, and the lily of the valley. When God appeared to Moses, it was not in the lofty cedar nor the sturdy oak nor the spreading palm; but in a bush, a humble, slender, abject shrub; as if He would, by these elections, check the conceited arrogance of man.
