—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
“One certainly has a soul; but how it came to allow itself to be enclosed in a body is more than I can imagine. I only know if once mine gets out, I’ll have a bit of a tussle before I let it get in again to that of any other.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“Children’s liberation is the next item on our civil rights shopping list.”
