• Our society is monstrously disjunctive, at once so efficient in war and so inefficient in caring for the welfare of its members.

Even when there is an emergency in a household, decent parents do not forget to feed the children.

• La diferencia entre hombres y mujeres es inalienable. No es un hecho político, sujeto a definiciones y redefiniciones culturales, sino una verdad física. La verdad es que experimentamos nuestras vidas de forma diferente porque nuestros cuerpos son diferentes. Somos iguales en lo que hacemos con nuestra experiencia. Sentimos, absorbemos y examinamos con la misma intensidad, y la experiencia intensa examinada honestamente informa el arte de ambos sexos por igual. ... El poder de la imaginación ilumina todas las vidas humanas en común.

• In the range of my character at any given moment, I have acted in the only way it seemed to me I could have acted. This in no way means that I have done what was right; only what was possible for me. Sometimes I have done what I knew was wrong, and have rationalized. But rationalization is a form of desperation. It takes kindness to forgive oneself for one's life.
