When it defines man as the enemy, feminism is alienating women from their own bodies.



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



The 1990s, after the reign of terror of academic vandalism, will be a decade of restoration: restoration of meaning, value, beauty, pleasure, and emotion to art and restoration of art to its audience.



Woman is the dominant sex. Men have to do all sorts of stuff to prove that they are worthy of woman's attention.
