"Yes, yes, I know. Life is like a train, Mademoiselle. It goes on. And it is a good thing that that is so."
"Why?"
"Because the train gets to its journey's end at last, and there is a proverb about that in your language, Mademoiselle."
"'Journey's end in lovers meeting.'" Lenox laughed. "That is not going to be true for me."
"Yes--yes, it is true. You are young, younger than you yourself know. Trust the train, Mademoiselle, for it is le bon Dieu who drives it."

"Trust the train, Mademoiselle," murmured Poirot again. "And trust Hercule Poirot. He knows.”

“Trainwrecks, as public figures, are necessarily also myths. But they’re the villains of the story; they’re our monsters and demons, images of what we fear, and who we fear becoming. I hated Britney early on, because I hated being forced into the role she seemingly enjoyed playing; I wanted to reject the feminine ideal she supposedly embodied, and I wound up rejecting her.
But every wreck is a potential role that women need or want to reject; the magnitude of our hatred for them is determined by how powerfully we fear what they represent. In Britney’s case, she represented the end of youth, and the corruption of purity: She was the pretty, good little girl who became ugly and bad when she grew up, the “Queen of Teen” who was used- up and over-the-hill by age twenty-five. She was the Wages of Feminism, the working mother who tried to have it all and wound up nearly dropping her baby onto the sidewalk. She was the cost of public life, for women.”

“Tramite un punteggio poligenico, si potrebbero fare previsioni sul rendimento scolastico del bambino ancor prima che sia concepito. La selezione pre-nascita potrebbe, in futuro, diventare molto più importante per l’accesso ad alcuni posti di lavoro rispetto a quanto oggi non lo sia l’università frequentata o la media accademica. Un MBA alla Cornell avrebbe un valore estremamente minore rispetto a un patrimonio genetico selettivamente bioingegnerizzato. I “30 e lode” saranno scritti nei nostri geni ancor prima di nascere.”
