There is nothing more boring for an intelligent woman than to spend endless amounts of time with small children.

There was a time when young people respected learning and literature and now they don't.

I'm sure that everybody feels a kind of permanent anguish about what's going on in the world.

If you read, you can learn to think for yourself.

I never stopped reading.

Literature is analysis after the event.

A woman writer, quitting love before literature when love lets her down, will put literature before love.
