    “Thus piteously Love closed what he begat:
    The union of this ever-diverse pair!
    These two were rapid falcons in a snare,
    Condemned to do the flitting of the bat.”
    —George Meredith (1828–1909)

    “It is the American vice, the democratic disease which expresses its tyranny by reducing everything unique to the level of the herd.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    “Children can’t be a center of life and a reason for being. They can be a thousand things that are delightful, interesting, satisfying, but they can’t be a wellspring to live from. Or they shouldn’t be.”
    —Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
