Quote by Isaac Asimov

“It doesn’t matter who ‘rules.’ Petruchio and Katherina are in love and so long as love exists, ‘ruler’ and ‘ruled’ lose their meaning. Petruchio looked only for money, and got love, too. Katherina looked for nothing and got love. It is completely happy ending.”

“Your mother hollers that you’re going to miss the bus. She can see it coming down the street. You don’t stop and hug her and tell her you love her. You don’t thank her for being a good, kind, patient mother. Of course not -- you vault down down the stairs and make a run for the corner. Only if it’s the last time you’ll ever see your mother, you sort of start to wish you’d stopped and did those things. Maybe even missed the bus. But the bus was barreling down our street so I ran.”
