If man is a rational animal, how much more animalistic, yet
rationalistic, is Manimal.
It's theorized that Robert Burns' famous phrase
'man's inhumanity to man' derives from an earlier
expression by German philosopher Samuel von Pufendorf – who,
with a name like that, would certainly have had firsthand knowledge
of the subject.
I WISH YOU WERE A BETTER
MAN.
ocean man, take me
by the hand. lead me
to the land, that
you understand.
Man can never know the loneliness a woman knows. Man lies in the woman's womb only to gather strength, he nourishes himself from this fusion, and then he rises and goes into the world, into his work, into battle, into art. He is not lonely. He is busy. The memory of the swim in amniotic fluid gives him energy, completion. Woman may be busy too, but she feels empty. Sensuality for her is not only a wave of pleasure in which she is bathed, and a charge of electric joy at contact with another. When man lies in her womb, she is fulfilled, each act of love a taking of man within her, an act of birth and rebirth, of child rearing and man bearing. Man lies in her womb and is reborn each time anew with a desire to act, to be. But for woman, the climax is not in the birth, but in the moment man rests inside of her.

“He who thinks by not talking to
his wife or girlfriend can make her realize and apologize for her
mistakes only, is in a fool’s
paradise.”

"A woman who
remains connected with her mother via a communication link to
convey on a daily or a weekly basis the things about her in-laws
members as what they eat, drink and think; normally likes the man
of the house to act like a weak mouse before her & so
naturally always keeps her married life on the brink of the
failure."

"A woman is never so honest in words to
her man as when she is made by him the angriest
person."
