Camille Paglia quotes
" A serious problem in America is the gap between academe and the mass media, which is our culture. Professors of humanities, with all their leftist fantasies, have little direct knowledge of American life and no impact whatever on public policy. "

Camille Paglia
" A woman simply is, but a man must become. Masculinity is risky and elusive. It is achieved by a revolt from woman, and it is confirmed only by other men. Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all. "

Camille Paglia
" Beauty is our weapon against nature; by it we make objects, giving them limit, symmetry, proportion. Beauty halts and freezes the melting flux of nature. "

Camille Paglia
" Despite crime's omnipresence, things work in society, because biology compels it. Order eventually restores itself, by psychic equilibrium. "

Camille Paglia
" Education has become a prisoner of contemporaneity. It is the past, not the dizzy present, that is the best door to the future. "

Camille Paglia
" Every man must define his identity against his mother. If he does not, he just falls back into her and is swallowed up. "

Camille Paglia
" Heaven help the American-born boy with a talent for ballet. "

Camille Paglia
" I believe that history has shape, order, and meaning; that exceptional men, as much as economic forces, produce change; and that passe abstractions like beauty, nobility, and greatness have a shifting but continuing validity. "

Camille Paglia
" If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts. "

Camille Paglia
" If you live in rock and roll, as I do, you see the reality of sex, of male lust and women being aroused by male lust. It attracts women. It doesn't repel them. "

Camille Paglia
" It is capitalist America that produced the modern independent woman. Never in history have women had more freedom of choice in regard to dress, behavior, career, and sexual orientation. "

Camille Paglia
" Jesus was a brilliant Jewish stand-up comedian, a phenomenal improviser. His parables are great one-liners. "

Camille Paglia
" Leaving sex to the feminists is like letting your dog vacation at the taxidermist. "

Camille Paglia
" Men know they are sexual exiles. They wander the earth seeking satisfaction, craving and despising, never content. There is nothing in that anguished motion for women to envy. "

Camille Paglia
" Modern bodybuilding is ritual, religion, sport, art, and science, awash in Western chemistry and mathematics. Defying nature, it surpasses it. "
