H. L. Mencken Hard Quotations

It is hard for the ape to believe he descended from man.

Man's objection to love is that it dies hard; woman's, that when it is dead, it stays dead.

Women have a hard time of it in this world. They are oppressed by man-made laws, man-made social customs, masculine egoism, the delusion of masculine superiority. Their one comfort is the assurance that, even though it may be impossible to prevail against man, it is always possible to enslave and torture a man.
