Reading was my first solitary vice (and led to all others). I read while I ate, I read in the loo, I read in the bath. When I was supposed to be sleeping, I was reading.

Marriage made more sense when it was indissoluble. It's the woman trying to cope with the strains of a one-parent family who will suffer most from the relaxation of the divorce laws.

The surest guide to the correctness of the path that women take is joy in the struggle. Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.

War is the admission of defeat in the face of conflicting interests.

The only causes of regret are laziness, outbursts of temper, hurting others, prejudice, jealousy, and envy.

The sight of women talking together has always made men uneasy; nowadays it means rank subversion.

I have always been principally interested in men for sex. I've always thought any sane woman would be a lover of women because loving men is such a mess. I have always wished I'd fall in love with a woman. Damn.
