Eunuchs do not take the gout, nor become bald.
Hippocrates

Critics are like eunuchs they can tell you what to do, but they can't do it themselves!
Brendan Behan
Image
Unlearned men of books assume the care, As eunuchs are the guardians of the fair.
Edward Young
Image
Critics are eunuchs at a gang bang.
George Burns
Image
Critics are the eunuchs of literature. They stand by in envious awe while the whole man and his partner demonstrate the art of living.
John Steinbeck
Image
Just as eunuchs will never know aesthetics as applied to the selection of beautiful women, so neither will pure rationalists ever know ethics, nor will they ever succeed in defining happiness, for happiness is a thing that is lived and felt, not a thing that is reasoned or defined.
Miguel

I detest symbolic protest, as it is an outcry of weak, middle-of-the-road, liberal eunuchs. If an individual feels strongly enough about something to do something about it, then he shouldn't prostitute himself by doing something symbolic. He should get out and do something real.
William Powell
Image
In the name of a greater civilization, we curse those who for the sake of their ambitious dreams, brought about the massacre of so many young lives. No matter how brutal the crime, you will always get glorification of its heroism and tradition from the eunuchs of bourgeois culture.
Amadeo Bordiga
Image
While the Romans languished under the ignominious tyranny of eunuchs and bishops, the praises of Julian were repeated with transport in every part of the empire, except in the palace of Constantius.
Edward Gibbon
Image
God knows, people who are paid to have attitudes toward things, professional critics, make me sick camp-following eunuchs of literature.
Ernest Hemingway
Image
Think of it! A second chamber selected by the Whips. A seraglio of eunuchs.
Michael Foot
Image
Critics are like eunuchs: they know how, but they can't do it.
Paul Bocuse
