More quotes by Camille Paglia
Pornography is human imagination in tense theatrical action its violations are a protest against the violations of our freedom by nature.
Camille Paglia
Much violence against women originates in emotional territory that they already command. By midlife and early old age, as the hormones of both genders change, women are in total, despotic control of their marriages.
Camille Paglia
The reform of a college English department cuts no ice down at the corner garage.
Camille Paglia

Camille Paglia

Camille Paglia
My argument has always been that nature has a master plan pushing every species toward procreation and that it is our right and even obligation as rational human beings to defy nature's fascism.

Camille Paglia
Society is an artificial construction, a defense against nature's power.
Camille Paglia
Modernization means Westernization.
Camille Paglia
I guess I'm just a natural warrior.
Camille Paglia

Camille Paglia
The search for freedom through sex is doomed to failure.
Camille Paglia

Camille Paglia
Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all.
Camille Paglia
Anyone who gets his or her political news primarily from the New York Times (which made the ethically challenged carpetbagger Hillary a senator) is a fool.
Camille Paglia
The only antidote to the magic of images is the magic of words.
Camille Paglia
Are we like late Rome, infatuated with past glories, ruled by a complacent, greedy elite, and hopelessly powerless to respond to changing conditions?
Camille Paglia
Pregnancy demonstrates the deterministic character of woman's sexuality.
Camille Paglia
If men are obsolete, then women will soon be extinct -- unless we rush down that ominous Brave New World path where women clone themselves by parthenogenesis, as famously do Komodo dragons, hammerhead sharks, and pit vipers.
Camille Paglia
My generation of the Sixties, with all our great ideals, destroyed liberalism, because of our excesses.
Camille Paglia
If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts.
