Quotes by Deborah Copaken (?)

“They say money doesn’t buy happiness. That depends on how you define happiness. It sure does buy time, convenience, childcare, breast scans, and professional opportunity, all of which can lead to greater happiness.

“For a country founded on the ideals of freedom, liberty, and justice for all, having affordable health insurance tied to full-time employment is an ironic and often fatal prison of our own making.”

“We don’t know?” I say. “We’ve landed men on the moon, but we don’t know the basic physiological roots of female pleasure? How is that even possible?”
