"God deliberated from what member (of Adam's body) He should create a woman, and He reasoned with Himself thus: I must not create her from Adam's head, for she would be a proud person and hold her head high. If I create her from the eye, then she will wish to pry into all things; if from the ear, she will wish to hear all things; if from the mouth, she will talk much; if from the heart, she will envy all people; if from the hand, she will desire to take to herself all things; if from the feet, she will be a gadabout. Therefore will I create her from the member which is hid, that is the rib, which is not seen even when man is naked. Yet for all these (careful precautions) she has all these faults. I have not created her from the head, yet she holds her head high, as Scripture says: "The daughters of Zion are haughty and walk with stretched forth necks;" nor from the eye, yet she wishes to see all things, as the same Scripture says: "And wanton eyes." I have not created her from the ear, yet she hears what she ought not to hear; nor from the heart, yet she envies all people. I have not created her from the hand, yet she loves to take all things; nor from the feet, yet she gads about."
