The very same people whose evenings begin with melted goat’s cheese ... get up at dawn to run, break for a mid-morning aerobics class, and watch the evening news while racing on a stationary bicycle.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

“Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime,
Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.”
