“Ambitious young women today are taught to ignore or suppress every natural instinct, if it conflicts with the feminist agenda posed on them.

It is the middle finger to the darkness.”

“You'll find that marriage is a good short cut to the truth. No, not quite that. A way of doubling back to the truth.

Your age, by the way, Jim. That's when you first realize that sex is important to other people besides yourself. A discovery like that can't help knocking you off balance for a time.”
