Lately, I've been doing a lot of tuning in and impatiently tuning out. As a longtime fan of talk radio, I don't think this bodes well for the long-term broad appeal of the medium. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I feel genuinely sorry for those who are so blinded by narrow partisanship that they cannot appreciate Limbaugh's energy, intelligence and satiric skill. They live in a box with bags over their heads. Though he and I hardly agree on politics (I voted for Ralph Nader last year and may go Green again in 2004), I respect Limbaugh as a political analyst and deft rhetorician who is a master of the microphone and who knows how to engage and challenge a vast audience. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Women's studies needed a syllabus and so invented a canon overnight. It puffed up clunky, mundane contemporary women authors into Oz-like, skywriting dirigibles. Our best women students are being force-fed an appalling diet of cant, drivel and malarkey. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Feminism has tried to dismiss the femme fatale as a misogynist libel, a hoary cliche. But the femme fatale expresses woman's ancient and eternal control of the sexual realm. The specter of the femme fatale stalks all of men's relationships with women. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Judeo-Christians have got to respect the pagan truth shown in the popular culture of sex and violence. It's meaningful about the elemental forces of life, the brutality of life and nature. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I believe that every person, male and female, needs to be in a protective mode at all times of alertness to potential danger. The world is full of potential attacks, potential disasters. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I am not feeling any better because I cannot stay in bed, having constant cause for walking. They say I leave at night by the window of my tower, hanging from a red umbrella with which I set fire to the forest! ~ Camille Claudel
Camille quotes by Camille Claudel
My prescription for women entering the war zone of the professions: study football ... Women who want to remake the future should look for guidance not to substitute parent figures but to the brash assertions of pagan sport. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Madonna is the true feminist. She exposes the puritanism and suffocating ideology of American feminism, which is stuck in an adolescent whining mode. Madonna has taught young women to be fully female and sexual while still exercising control over their lives. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
As Camille Paglia's success has demonstrated, what is most marketable is absolutism and attitude undiluted by thought. ~ Wendy Kaminer
Camille quotes by Wendy Kaminer
Madonna's great instinctive intelligence was evident to me from her earliest videos. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
When in doubt, I read Oscar Wilde. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I have been back in Paris for two weeks. Nothing new. Life is still bitter. ~ Camille Claudel
Camille quotes by Camille Claudel
I like good company, but I like hard work still better. ~ Camille Saint-Saens
Camille quotes by Camille Saint-Saens
Only utopian liberals could be surprised that the Nazis were art connoisseurs. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Woman is the dominant sex. Men have to do all sorts of stuff too prove that they are worthy of a woman's attention. ~ Camille Pagliah
Camille quotes by Camille Pagliah
Lovely,wonderful Isabelle.Could you please go away?Now is a really bad time."
Isabelle looked from Magnus to her brother,and back again.
"Then,you dont want me to tell you that Camille's just escaped from the Sanctuary and my mother is demanding that you come back to the Institute right now to help them find her?"
"No,"Magnus said."I dont want you to tell me that"
"Well,to bad"Isabelle said"Because it's true .I mean,I guess you dont have to go,but- ~ Cassandra Clare
Camille quotes by Cassandra Clare
I have indeed lived and worked to my taste either in art or science. What more could a man desire? Knowledge has always been my goal. There is much that I shall leave behind undone ... but something at least I was privileged to leave for the world to use, if it so intends ... As the Latin poet said I will leave the table of the living like a guest who has eaten his fill. Yes, if I had another life to spend, I certainly would not waste it. But that cannot be, so why complain? ~ Leon Camille Marius Croizat
Camille quotes by Leon Camille Marius Croizat
I shall die in the belief that to make France free, republican and prosperous, a little ink would have sufficed - and only one guillotine. ~ Camille Desmoulins
Camille quotes by Camille Desmoulins
Here is a rewriting of the British national anthem, by 'Camille, Australia'. It is, she explains, chiefly for the benefit of Microsoft Word and Outlook Express users:

Camille quotes by David Crystal
Many, perhaps most, very learned people prefer the company of their books to sitting in a crowd listening to history and art being mangled; furthermore, it is unlikely that the venerable scholars will stand up afterward to declare, "This lecture was a load of crap." The more profound a professor's distaste with the proceedings, the more likely he is to melt away at the end of the talk. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Last time I checked, there were no Americans at all in Renaissance art. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I would have preferred to be successful here with a piece that cost me a huge amount of money and effort ... rather than sending to Bohemia some ordinary works. ~ Camille Claudel
Camille quotes by Camille Claudel
Popular and democratic government is the only constitution which suits France, and all those who are worthy of the name of men. ~ Camille Desmoulins
Camille quotes by Camille Desmoulins
It was in reading Tristam Shandy that I noticed how it is primarily men who gravitate towards the game-playing self-reflexive style. There is an alienation from emotion in it, a Nervous Nelly fear of letting go and being "exposed." As an attitude towards life, it betrays a perpetual adolescence. Those who hurled themselves after Derrida were not the most sophisticated but the most pretentious, and least creative members of my generation of academics. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Lacan is a tyrant who must be driven from our shores. Narrowly trained English professors who know nothing of art history or popular culture think they can just wade in with Lacan and trash everything in sight. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Male conspiracy cannot explain all female failures. I am convinced that, even without restrictions, there still would have been no female Pascal, Milton, or Kant. Genius is not checked by social obstacles: it will overcome. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
From assorted challenges, diverse gifts, unique personalities, and varied contributions, Mary and Martha lead us to the Necessary One--Jesus Christ. Like the sisters of Bethany, we do not fully acknowledge Him as necessary until we confront our lost and fallen condition without Him. Most often that occurs when we face a crisis greater than alternative methods can help us to survive. In such dire circumstances, when neither our finest skills nor those of anyone else on earth are effective, we become profoundly humble. We cry out to the One who is necessary, and we wait--wait for Him--because we realize that no other power can rescue us. ~ Camille Fronk Olson
Camille quotes by Camille Fronk Olson
Already d'Anton did not believe this. He recognized it as a disclaimer that Camille would issue from time to time in the hope of disguising the fact that he was an inveterate hell-raiser. ~ Hilary Mantel
Camille quotes by Hilary Mantel
Candles blazing, the people closet to me in the world sang "Happy Birthday," and I grinned like a fool and tried not to cry because it was so wonderful and so disarming - almost like being transported back to a moment in childhood that I had not actually lived through. I blew out the candles and everyone cheered. "Thank you all for being here with me," I said, too choked up to manage more. It is so easy to go through your days stewing about someone stealing your parking spot without giving the same attention to your child's arms around your neck, to grumble about the ever-increasing cost of groceries without realizing just how good it is have warm toast and a fresh cup of coffee while sitting across from the one you love. ~ Camille Pagan
Camille quotes by Camille Pagan
The only thing that will be remembered about my enemies after they're dead is the nasty things I've said about them. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
When asked for the details of an ideal date, I answered, "I want him to take me to a book store, so he can see just how happy I can be. ~ Camille Cabujat
Camille quotes by Camille Cabujat
I have fallen into an abyss. I live in a world so curious, so strange. Of the dream that was my life, this is my nightmare. ~ Camille Claudel
Camille quotes by Camille Claudel
Lately, I've been leaning towards kindness.

- Camille Preaker ~ Gillian Flynn
Camille quotes by Gillian Flynn
Human beings are not nature's favorites. We are merely one of a multitude of species upon which nature indiscriminately exerts its force. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
The first things to study are form and values. For me, these are the things that are the basics of what is serious in art. ~ Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot
Camille quotes by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot
I remember that, although I was full of fervour, I didn't have the slightest inkling, even at forty, of the deeper side to the movement we were pursuing by instinct. It was in the air! ~ Camille Pissarro
Camille quotes by Camille Pissarro
Popular culture is the new Babylon, into which so much art and intellect now flow. It is our imperial sex theater, supreme temple of the western eye. We live in the age of idols. The pagan past, never dead, flames again in our mystic hierarchies of stardom. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Within the U.S., the Obama presidency will be mainly measured by the success or failure of his economic policies. And here, I fear, the monstrous stimulus package with which this administration stumbled out of the gate will prove to be Obama's Waterloo. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by 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. Nature herself is a mass murderer, making casual, cruel experiments and condemning 10,000 to die so that one more fit will live and thrive. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
A serious problem in America is the gap between academe and the mass media, which is our culture. Professors of humanities, with all their leftist fantasies, have little direct knowledge of American life and no impact whatever on public policy. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Don't imitate, don't follow the others, or else you will lag behind them. ~ Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot
Camille quotes by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot
A lot of my work deals with this emotion of discouragement or fear, and this emotion cannot be approached without humor because then things become indigestible. You don't want to eat them; you don't want to be in contact with them. ~ Camille Henrot
Camille quotes by Camille Henrot
I certainly derived my skills as a prose writer from my scrutiny of poetry and of the individual word. But schools don't do things like that anymore - tracking words down to their roots. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I'm working on new techniques. I'm trying to find a way to make fresco that can be detached from a wall, and I'm trying to find new people who can help me work on a very large scale in bronze. ~ Camille Henrot
Camille quotes by Camille Henrot
Years later Magnus would return to London and Camille Belcourt's side, and find it not all that he had dreamed. Years later another desperate Herondale boy with blue, blue eyes would come to his door, shaking with the cold of the rain and his own wretchedness, and this one Magnus would be able to help. ~ Cassandra Clare
Camille quotes by Cassandra Clare
I say the law should be blind to race, gender and sexual orientation, just as it claims to be blind to wealth and power. There should be no specially protected groups of any kind, except for children, the severely disabled and the elderly, whose physical frailty demands society's care. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
What fascinated me about English was what I later recognized as its hybrid etymoogy: blunt Anglo-Saxon concreteness, sleek Norman French urbanity, and polysyllabic Greco-Roman abstraction. The clash of these elements, as competitive as Italian dialects is invigorating, richly entertaining, and often funny, as it is to Shaskespeare, who gets tremendous effects out of their interplay. The dazzling multiplicity of sounds and word choices in English makes it brilliantly suited to be a language of poetry.. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille 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
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Art is something out of the ordinary commenting on the ordinary. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
In fact, the underlying principle of the baroque is the idea of transformation, of movement, and animals becoming man, and man becoming animals, and mythology. It was a way to inspire pre-Christian character. ~ Camille Henrot
Camille quotes by Camille Henrot
In the real world, very smart people fail and mediocre people rise. Part of what makes people fail or succeed are skills that have nothing to do with IQ. Also, the idea that intelligence can be gauged by an IQ test is erroneous. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Our liberal, New York/Washington-based media would never in a million years put Liberal Godfather Ted Kennedy on the spot about his clan's bad behavior, to whose lurid history he himself has contributed so much. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
It does not astonish me that the critics in London relegate me to the lowest rank. Alas! I fear that they are only too justified! ~ Camille Pissarro
Camille quotes by Camille Pissarro
[Sarah] Palin is solidifying her status as a bona fide American cultural heroine. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
There's something retro about your persona. It's like the pre-World War II generation of reporters - those unpretentious, working-class guys who hung around saloons and used rough language. Now they've all been replaced with these effete Ivy League elitists who swarm over the current media. Nerds - utterly dull and insipid. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I am a very reclusive, private person. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Cinema is the culmination of the obsessive, mechanistic male drive in western culture. The movie projector is an Apollonian straight-shooter, demonstrating the link between aggression and art. Every pictorial framing is a ritual limitation, a barred precinct. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Ever since Romanticism, an oppositional mode, artists have the right, and indeed the duty, to attack social convention. But it is ridiculous and in fact self-infantilizing for them to expect to be financially supported by the general public whom they are insulting. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
*marissa tries to get her single, working mother's attention by suggesting something outrageous, to which mom replies:*

'You're a smart girl. Use your head and avoid any guy who reminds you of your father. ~ Camille Pagan
Camille quotes by Camille Pagan
The piddling ignoramuses who deny that there is a distinct, discernible, objective western tradition are just woozy literati. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Men who shrink from penetration of the female body are paralyzed by justifiable apprehension, since they are returning to our uncanny site of origin. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
My family moved from California to New Jersey in the beginning of my sophomore year of high school. I will never forget the first day in a new school, walking into the cafeteria during lunch and not knowing a single soul. I didn't feel confident enough to share a seat at just anyone's table. ~ Camille Guaty
Camille quotes by Camille Guaty
The people we are drawn to are the ones we need most, even if we are never able to fully comprehend why. ~ Camille Pagan
Camille quotes by Camille Pagan
Eternity is a long time to spend alone, without others of your kind. ~ Cassandra Clare
Camille quotes by Cassandra Clare
I don't understand water and gravity. ~ Camille
Camille quotes by Camille
I know, having myself lost a parent too soon, that being without a father will not be easy for you. But try to remember that loss is an incredible stroke of luck. Yes, luck. For loss caries with it two truths: that you have loved, and hat you yourself have had the good fortune to live a little longer. ~ Camille Pagan
Camille quotes by Camille Pagan
Pregnancy demonstrates the deterministic character of woman's sexuality. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I sometimes call my new system 'Italian pagan Catholicism,' but it could more accurately be called 'pragmatic liberalism,' with roots in Enlightenment political philosophy. It is a synthesis of the enduring dual elements in our culture, pagan and Judeo-Christian, Romantic and Classic. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Do you recall where the lamps were?" Camille whispered. In the dark, in someone else's home, whispering seemed more appropriate. A clunk off to her right and the screech of table legs skittering across the floor made her cringe.
"I don't remember that being there," Oscar said.
"I'm glad we don't break into houses for a living. We're appalling at it," Camille said, laughing as the room brightened. ~ Angie Frazier
Camille quotes by Angie Frazier
Ambitious young women today are taught to ignore or suppress every natural instinct, if it conflicts with the feminist agenda posed on them. All literary and artistic works, no matter how great, that document the ambivalence of female sexuality they are trained to dismiss as "misogynous." In other words, their minds are being programmed to secede from their bodies ... there is a huge gap between feminist rhetoric and women's actual sex lives, where feminism is of little help except with a certain stratum of deferential, malleable, white middle-class men. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
All the sorrow, all the bitterness, all the sadness, I forget them and ignore them in the joy of working. ~ Camille Pissarro
Camille quotes by Camille Pissarro
I grew up riding horses since I was eight. I rode English style and competed every weekend. I had two horses, Scout and Camille, and they were my babies. It taught me a lot about responsibility and commitment. I hope horses will always be in my life. ~ Halston Sage
Camille quotes by Halston Sage
But, in order to feel joy and love on a grander scale and experience such magnificence, we must be open to feel all things. ~ Camille Lucy
Camille quotes by Camille Lucy
more annoying than her general righteousness. But Camille ~ Mary Balogh
Camille quotes by Mary Balogh
I'm very pro-American - my entire family escaped poverty in Italy because they rightly believed in the American dream. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Fabre stood up. He placed his fingertips on d'Anton's temples. "Put your fingers here," he said. "Feel the resonance. Put them here, and here." He jabbed at d'Anton's face: below the cheekbones, at the side of his jaw. "I'll teach you like an actor," he said. "This city is our stage."
Camille said: "Book of Ezekiel. 'This city is the cauldron, and we the flesh' ..."
Fabre turned. "This stutter," he said. "You don't have to do it." Camille put his hands over his eyes. "Leave me alone," he said. "Even you." Fabre's face was incandescent. "Even you, I am going to teach." He leapt forward, wrenched Camille upright in his chair. He took him by the shoulders and shook him. "You're going to talk properly," Fabre said. "Even if it kills one of us." Camille put his hands protectively over his head. Fabre continued to perpetrate violence; d'Anton was too tired to intervene. ~ Hilary Mantel
Camille quotes by Hilary Mantel
And I found in my study that history is cyclic, and everywhere in the world you find this pattern in ancient times: that as a culture begins to decline, you have an efflorescence of transgender phenomena. That is a symptom of cultural collapse. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
The subject should be observed more for shape and color than for drawing ... precise drawing is dry and hampers the impression of the whole, it destroys all sensations. ~ Camille Pissarro
Camille quotes by Camille Pissarro
I went to a Catholic school, so of course we had to wear uniforms. My only form of expression was in shoes and the style of my hair. ~ Camille Guaty
Camille quotes by Camille Guaty
My countrymen have commissioned a bust of the Republic. It will be placed on the fountain of my native town. ~ Camille Claudel
Camille quotes by Camille Claudel
Beware of a kiss under the full moon. It will change your life forever. ~ Camille Meadows
Camille quotes by Camille Meadows
What we found in our conversations with these superachievers was that success di not come to them in the thunderclap of their Eureka! moments. Talent was just the beginning. Their sustained success depended on many factors -some in their control, and some not- but the first steps of these superachievers were to know themselves and to assess what they had to work with. Then, their progress toward their goals was furthered by their fierce dedication to the day-to-day struggle for achievement. ~ Camille Sweeney
Camille quotes by Camille Sweeney
In the aftermath of their visions, Petit and Rice could not have imagined all that would be required of them. Neither Petit's dream of crossing the towers nor Rice's of fighting for justice came with an instruction manual. To accomplish their feats they'd have to overcome fear, test their plans against reality and maintain an unwavering focus on what their visions had revealed to them about their future selves. ~ Camille Sweeney
Camille quotes by Camille Sweeney
Your mother's not gone, Libby. You'll see her again one day." I clung to this belief, even as I cursed its complete and utter inability to offer real comfort. I did not want to hear it, even from my own husband. Nor did I want to hear about God having a plan, or all things happening for a reason, or any other number of Hallmark sentiments that pinged against my heart like pebbles on a thin windowpane. ~ Camille Pagan
Camille quotes by Camille Pagan
Promiscuity in men may cheapen love but sharpen thought. Promiscuity in women is illness, a leakage of identity. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Your payback? You've made me believe all weekend that you were falling for me!" "I am! I have! Jesus Christ, Camille, how can I get ~ Jamie McGuire
Camille quotes by Jamie McGuire
Modernization means Westernization. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Eroticism is mystique; that is, the aura of emotion and imagination around sex. It cannot be 'fixed' by codes of social or moral convenience, whether from the political left or right. For nature's fascism is greater than that of any society. There is a daemonic instability in sexual relations that we may have to accept. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Teenage boys, goaded by their surging hormones run in packs like the primal horde. They have only a brief season of exhilarating liberty between control by their mothers and control by their wives. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
The western mind makes definitions; it draws lines. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Reunion with the mother is a siren call haunting our imagination. Once there was bliss, and now there is struggle. Dim memories of life before the traumatic separation of birth may be the source of Arcadian fantasies of a lost golden age. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
She was sound asleep when he came to curl up next to her. She grunted.
"Don't worry. I'm too drunk, I won't do anything," he murmered.
As she had her back to him, he placed his nose on her neck and slid his arm underneath her to be as close to her as possible. Short strands of her hair tickled his nostrils.
"Camille?"
Was she asleep? Was she pretending? No answer either way.
"I like being with you."
A little smile.
Was she dreaming? Was she asleep? Who knows ... ~ Anna Gavalda
Camille quotes by Anna Gavalda
Every man must define his identity against his mother. If he does not, he just falls back into her and is swallowed up. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Feminism, in all fields, has yet to produce a single scholar of the intellectual rank of scores of these learned men [e.g., Bruno Snell, Albin Lesky, Denys Page] in the German and British academic tradition. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
The number one problem in academia today is not ignorant students but ignorant professors, who have substituted narrow "expertise" and "theoretical sophistication" (a preposterous term) for breadth and depth of learning in the world history of art and thought ... Art is a vast, ancient interconnected web-work, a fabricated tradition. Overconcentration on any one point is a distortion. This is one of the primary reasons for the dullness and ineptitude of so much twentieth-criticism, as compared to nineteenth-century belles-lettres. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I believe that history has shape, order, and meaning; that exceptional men, as much as economic forces, produce change; and that passe abstractions like beauty, nobility, and greatness have a shifting but continuing validity. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
I love the Web, but the basis of my work is going through the physical books. When you go to the library, you see other books around on the shelves that you never knew existed. You can flip through a book and see the whole outline of it. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
Younger women have no problem in reconciling beauty with ambitions as a professional woman. ~ Camille Paglia
Camille quotes by Camille Paglia
