“To love another ... is, to stand in a true relation to him, so that we give the best to, and receive the best from, him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Women of my age in America are at the mercy of two powerful and antagonistic traditions. The first is the ultradomestic fifties with its powerful cult of motherhood; the other is the strident feminism of the seventies with its attempt to clone the male competitive model.... Only in America are these ideologies pushed to extremes.”
