    Existentialism is about being a saint without God; being your own hero, without all the sanction and support of religion or society.
    Anita Brookner (b. 1938)

    A complete woman is probably not a very admirable creature. She is manipulative, uses other people to get her own way, and works within whatever system she is in.
    Anita Brookner (b. 1938)
