    “What I would like to give my daughter is freedom. And this is something that must be given by example, not by exhortation. Freedom is a loose leash, a license to be different from your mother and still be loved. . . . Freedom is . . . not insisting that your daughter share your limitations. Freedom also means letting your daughter reject you when she needs to and come back when she needs to. Freedom is unconditional love.”
    —Erica Jong (20th century)

    “It is not her body that he wants but it is only through her body that he can take possession of another human being, so he must labor upon her body, he must enter her body, to make his claim.”
    —Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)

    “Politics is a choice of enemas. You’re gonna get it up the ass, no matter what you do.”
    —George V. Higgins (b. 1939)
