Quoting, like smoking, is a dirty habit to which I am devoted.

Odd, the years it took to learn one simple fact: that the prize just ahead, the next job, publication, love affair, marriage always seemed to hold the key to satisfaction but never, in the longer run, sufficed.

The married are those who have taken the terrible risk of intimacy and, having taken it, know life without intimacy to be impossible.

Today’s shocks are tomorrow’s conventions.

Ideas move rapidly when their time comes.

Ironically, women who acquire power are more likely to be criticized for it than are the men who have always had it.

The journey is over. Love to all.

Quoting, like smoking, is a dirty habit to which I am devoted.

You can flush my ashes down the toilet, for all I care.

We in middle age require adventure.

To recommend that women become identical to men, would be simple reversal, and would defeat the whole point of androgyny, and for that matter, feminism: in both, the whole point is choice.
