“We waited and waited. All of us. Didn't the shrink know that waiting was one of the things that drove people crazy? People waited all their lives. They waited to live, they waited to die. They waited in line to buy toilet paper. They waited in line for money. And if they didn't have any money they waited in longer lines. You waited to go to sleep and then you waited to awaken. You waited to get married and you waited to get divorced. You waited for it to rain, you waited for it to stop. You waited to eat and then you waited to eat again. You waited in a shrink's office with a bunch of psychos and you wondered if you were one.”

“History is a commentary on the various and continuing incapabilities of men. What is history? History is women following behind with the bucket.”

“It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone. They could be honest with me, and I with them.”

“During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.”
