“Men never know when things are dirty or not; women will have their little nonsenses and needless cares.”

“The ladies here probably exchanged looks which meant, 'Men never know when things are dirty or not;' and the gentlemen perhaps thought each to himself, 'Women will have their little nonsense and needless cares.”

“I don’t know why women want any of the things men have when one of the things that women have is men.”

“Women know things that men will never know. We keep the best secrets. We tell the best stories.”

“Whenever women have insisted on absolute equality with men, they have invariably wound up with the dirty end of the stick. What they are and what they can do makes them superior to men, and their proper tactic is to demand special privileges, all the traffic will bear. They should never settle merely for equality. For women, "equality" is a disaster.”

“In all my experience along the dirtiest ways of this dirty little world, I have never met with such a thing as a trifle yet.”
