Anne

Ohh! You gotta believe in God! But I don’t believe God created Man in His image. ‘Cause most the shit that happens is because of men. Men were made in the devil’s image. And women were created outta God.

‘Cause, after all, women can have babies–which is kinda like creating. And which also accounts for the fact that women are so attracted to men. ‘Cause let’s face it, the devil is a helluva lot more interesting. I slept with some saints in my day, believe me, I know.

Eegh-boy! So, the whole point of life, the whole point of life is for men and women to get married so God and the Devil can get together–and work it out. (beat) Not that we have to get married or anything. (Mae West voice) God forbid.
