No nice men are good at getting taxis.

The Life and Soul, the man who will never go home while there is one man, woman or glass of anything not yet drunk.

It's a pity more men are not bastards by birth instead of vocation.

As I look around the West End these days, it seems to me that outside every thin girl is a fat man, trying to get in.

I blame Rousseau, myself. "Man is born free", indeed. Man is not born free, he is born attached to his mother by a cord and is not capable of looking after himself for at least seven years (seventy in some cases).

And what would happen to my illusion that I am a force for order in the home if I wasn't married to the only man north of the Tiber who is even untidier than I am?

It might be marvelous to be a man - then I could stop worrying about what's fair to women and just cheerfully assume I was superior, and that they had all been born to iron my shirts.

As ridiculous to approve of property and let a few men have a grossly unfair share of it, as say you are all for marriage, and then let one man have all the wives.
