The left-wing thinkers and intellectuals have been more misogynist with me than the army. They can't accept that a young woman is able to think, and they underestimate the intellectual work and study I might have done. They ask who is the man behind me. View quote
Maria de Medeiros

I don't mean to underestimate them, but if you laugh at these idiots enough - show them up as the phonies most of them are - they'll go away.

Both operate on faith, rather than fact. And neither of them has any qualms about dusting off the rack, the pincers, the Iron Maiden, and the red hot branding irons in order to see their mythology ensconced as beyond question. View quote
L. Neil Smith
