“Man - a figment of God's imagination.”

“Their very imagination was dead. When you can say that of a man he has struck bottom... there is no lower deep for him.”

“Man was made at the end of the week's work when God was tired.”

“I wonder if God created man because He was disappointed with the monkey.”

“Of all God's creatures, there is only one that cannot be made slave of the leash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve the man, but it would deteriorate the cat.”

“Man has imagined a heaven, and has left entirely out of it the supremest of all his delights...sexual intercourse!...His heaven is like himself: strange, interesting, astonishing, grotesque. I give you my word, it has not a single feature in it that he actually values.”

“Reality can be beaten with enough imagination.”
