Monkey Business Quotes

“That dress there, not one woman in a hundred in this mall could fit into it or afford it. But the dresses aren’t supposed to be sold. They’re designed to be shown at fashion shows that will make women imagine they’re acquiring some similar essence of glamor by paying a ten- or twenty-fold markup for the brand’s handbags, which are fancy vaginas or wombs only women are allowed to carry, which they then stuff with the brand’s overpriced fragrances as a substitute for the human pheromones they washed away in their morning showers.”

“Humans have always suspected they’re half-baked, but because they’re half-baked they have trouble doing anything about it. And the saddest thing is, if somebody tries, and begins to conceive how humankind could save itself, because they’re sane and see the world isn’t flat, the rest of the monkeys use whatever wits they have to invent new ways”
