But I hate to hear you talking so like a fine gentleman, and as if women were all fine ladies, instead of rational creatures. We none of us expect to be in smooth water all our days.

Women can never forgive me; they hate me, they feel I am disarming them. I show them without their coquetry.

I begin to think, that a calm is not desirable in any situation in life. Man was made for action and for bustle too, I believe.

Sometimes I dislike women I dislike us all because of our capacity for not thinking when it suits us...

Sometimes I dislike women, I dislike us all, because of our capacity for not-thinking when it suits us; we choose not to think when we are reaching our for happiness.

Women want us to like them, but they don't even like each other.

How can you be afraid of women?”
“Those ain’t normal women.

Les femmes sont impitoyables avec les gens qu'elles n'aiment pas.

Of all creatures that can feel and think,
we women are the worst treated things alive

I despise women who rely on men entirely for their own existence.

I hate this waaaah-I'm-a-poor-sensitive-weak-woman-protect-me shit. This kind of stuff generates more contempt for women. So fuck niceness!

I begin to think, that a calm is not desirable in any situation in life. Every object is beautiful in motion; a ship under sail, trees gently agitated with the wind, and a fine woman dancing, are three instances in point. Man was made for action and for bustle too, I believe.

I was gravely warned by some of my female acquaintances that no woman could expect to be regarded as a lady after she had written a book.

Oh! Women can never forgive me. They hate me, they can feel that I ‘m disarming them. I show them without their coquetry, in the states of animals cleaning themselves... ...I'm sure of it; they see me as the enemy. Fortunately, since if they did like me, that would be the end of me.
