Elphaba: This is why you shouldn’t fall in love, it blinds you. Love is wicked distraction.

Fiyero: What in the world do you know about wickedness? You’re a bit player in this network of renegades, aren’t you? You’re a novice.

E: The wickedness of men is that their power breeds stupidity and blindness.

F: And of women?

E: Women are weaker, but their weakness is full of cunning and an equally rigid moral certainty. Since their arena is smaller, their capacity for real damage is less alarming. Though being more intimate they are the more treacherous.

F: And my capacity for evil?

E: Fiyero’s capacity for evil is in believing too strenuously in a capacity for good.

F: And yours?

E: Mine is in thinking in epigrams.
