Two Choice Quotes From the Crazy Dude in 53rd and 5th Subway Station

Please imagine these delivered in a booming, clear orator’s voice on a crowded but nearly silent platform:

“If you have no man in your nation, you have no leader! Alexander was a woman! Caesar was a woman! Marc Antony was a woman! Napoleon was a woman! Attila was a woman! Ghenghis Khan was a woman! (Pause) Peter the Great was a woman! Lao Tzu was a woman!”

“Woman is retarded. They need man to make decisions! Woman cannot make decisions! Man makes his plans a thousand years in advance; woman doesn’t know what she wants for dinner! That’s right, it’s called city planning. It’s planned out a thousand years in advance. Rome looked exactly like New York City, it had rich neighborhoods and poor neighborhoods. That was 2,000 years ago! A woman making decisions—Mental Illness! Woman is retarded! (Repeat from beginning)”
