Quotes by Deborah Cohen (?)

“She was on her first American lecture tour, addressing audiences on such racy subjects as polygamy. There wasn’t a man living who could gratify four or five women, Rebecca had insisted: “There are many men who cannot make even one woman happy.”
― Deborah Cohen, Last Call at the Hotel Imperial: The Reporters Who Took on a World at War

― Deborah Cohen, Last Call at the Hotel Imperial: The Reporters Who Took On a World at War
