The newer education put stress on culture ... Saturday mornings, the young were brushed and washed, forced into blue cheviot suits, and dragged to children's concerts to learn appreciation.

Each husband gets the infidelity he deserves.

There's no privacy for the violently dead.

Every door opens to something and it is better to go toward that something than to sit staring at the blank wall of time.
