“The structural similarity of men, and their ability to be represented both as ideal, like Leonardo's Vitruvian Man, and as average. Man being the measure of all things, and therefore a sort of standard and interchangeable unit of length, breadth, intelligence, emotion. We could lay them end to end to measure the distance between the continents, the distance to the moon. We could use them to calculate the weight of weather, or to buy things at the grocery. With such an abundance of men, we could gauge anything we chose.”

“Эмма Ли была во всех смыслах редким человеком — образованная, утончённая, свободомыслящая (а ведь либертарной литературы она прочла не так уж и много). Она сумела изжить в себе расовые предубеждения южанки. Но больше всего меня восхищало в ней отсутствие какой-либо неприязни к мужчинам. Личная любовная трагедия не ограничила её мировоззрение. Эмма говорила, что мужчины по природе своей глухи к потребностям женщин, даже лучшие из них хотят лишь обладать нами, но вместе с тем они интересные и порой забавные.”
