सुभाषितम्: #१४

========================================================

अकृत्यं मन्यतॆ कृत्यमगम्यं मन्यतॆ सुगम् |
Un-doable is thought to-be-done (kartavya), un-achievable is thought to be easily-achievable

and

अभक्ष्यं मन्यतॆ भक्ष्यम् स्त्रीवाक्य प्रेरितो नर: ||
Un-edible is thought to-be-eaten when a man is influenced by a woman's words!

The subhaashitakaara highlights (and in pun) the strong influence of woman's words on a man.
