“Most men - not just the men in Brentwood - are scared of powerful women with brains. There's something in a man that makes him want to have power over a woman - whether it's in the bedroom or because they earn more money. It boosts their egos.” MenWantPowerfulBrainHe ManEgoScaredMore MoneyBedroomBoostPowerful Women Author:Jodie Marsh

“The animal tends to eat with his stomach, and the man with his brain. When the animal's stomach is full, he stops eating, but the man is never sure when to stop. When he has eaten as much as his belly can take, he still feels empty, he still feels an urge for further gratification.” MenFeelsStillsAnimalBrainHe ManEatingEmptyEmptinessUrgesStomachBellyGratification Book:The Wisdom of Insecurity Source: The Wisdom of Insecurity
“A young financial writer once brought ridicule upon himself by stating that a certain company had nothing to commend it except excellent earnings. Well, there are companies whose earnings are excellent but whose stocks I would never recommend. In selecting investments, I attach prime importance to the men behind them. I'd rather buy brains and character than earnings. Earnings can be good one year and poor the next. But if you put your money into securities run by men combining conspicuous brains and unimpeachable character, the likelihood is that the financial results will prove satisfactory.” IfsMenYearsWellsCharacterRunningYoungCertainNextWealthPoorResultsBehindsBrainCompanySecurityHe ManProveImportanceInvestmentFinancialBe GoodExcellentPrimeEarningRidiculeLikelihoodCombiningFinancial Results Author:B.

“There are, broadly speaking, two types of drinkers. There is the man whom we all know, stupid, unimaginative, whose brain is bitten numbly by numb maggots; who walks generously with wide-spread, tentative legs, falls frequently in the gutter, and who sees, in the extremity of his ecstasy, blue mice and pink elephants.... The other type of drinker has imagination, vision. Even when most pleasantly jingled he walks straight and naturally, never staggers nor falls, and knows just where he is and what he is doing. It is not his body but his brain that is drunken.” KnowsMenTwoBodyFallImaginationWalksBrainVisionStupidHe ManTypeBlueLegsSpreadWideEcstasyMiceElephantsNumbDrinkersGuttersExtremityMaggots Author:Jack London
“This subject brings me to that vilest offspring of the herd mind -- the odious militia. The man who enjoys marching in line and file to the strains of music falls below my contempt; he received his great brain by mistake -- the spinal cord would have been amply sufficient. This heroism at command, this senseless violence, this accursed bombast of patriotism -- how intensely I despise them!

“In each of us two powers preside, one male, one female: and in the man's brain, the man predominates over the woman, and in the woman's brain, the woman predominates over the man...If one is a man, still the woman part of the brain must have effect; and a woman also must have intercourse with the man in her. Coleridge perhaps meant this when he said that a great mind is androgynous. It is when this fusion takes place that the mind is fully fertilized and uses all its faculties.” IfsMenMindSaidStillsTwoUseBrainEffectsHe ManFemaleMalesFacultyIntercourseFusionGreat MindsAndrogynous Author:Virginia Woolf
