Simone de Beauvoir
-
All oppression creates a state of war.
-
No one is more arrogant toward women, more aggressive or scornful, than the man who is anxious about his virility.
-
The most mediocre of males feels himself a demigod as compared with women.
-
Representation of the world, like the world itself, is the work of men they describe it from their own point of view, which they confuse with the absolute truth.
