Never underestimate a man's ability to underestimate a woman.

My parents were liberal intellectuals but even they expected me to stay at home and look after my younger siblings and do the housework.

I'm at the atheist end of the agnostic spectrum.

The crime novel has always been my favourite genre.

People have less privacy and are crammed together in cities, but in the wide open spaces they secretly keep tabs on each other a lot more

The day of the march, we were forbidden to go to the march site. The man I worked for, the Presbyterian minister, knew we would want to be sort of martyrs for the cause and risk arrest. He didn't want any of that going on. So he made us stay in the neighborhood.

I'm very honoured that there is a loyal following and I hope it continues
