Abdomen Quotes
“Abdomen, n. The temple of the god Stomach, in whose worship, with sacrificial rights, all true men engage. From women this ancient faith commands but a stammering assent. They sometimes minister at the altar in a half-hearted and ineffective way, but true reverence for the one diety that men really adore they know not. If woman had a free hand in the world's marketing the race would become graminivorous.”
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914) 'The Devil's Dictionary' (1911)
