"I try to make a habit of bouncing my eyes up to the face of a beautiful woman, and often repeat “not mine” in my head or even verbally. She’s not mine. God has her set aside. She’s not mine. She’s His little girl, and she needs me to fight for her by keeping my eyes where they should be."
pound of feathers is measured in avoirdupois and weighs 16 ounces; a pound of gold is measured in Troy and weighs 12. The ounces are slightly different, but a pound of feathers still weighs 20% more than a pound of gold. Our system is not only confusing to the remainder of the world, it?s sometimes impenetrable to us.

Gold and other precious metals are still weighed in the Troy scale.. which only use 12 ounces per pound.
