“he female sex (and, for that matter, sex in general) has never found favour with any of the world’s religions, or with their priests and prophets (which should make us stop and think a little about religion in general, but that’s another book.)”
― Wendy Doniger, On Hinduism

“Ah, the good old days,” I replied. “When things were simpler, kids were more respectful, and we had to walk to school through six feet of snow.” “Barefoot.” “Uphill.” “Both ways.”

“Small children always bounce back. Parents think of them as fragile flowers, but they’re more like weeds: They show up whenever they want, grow like crazy, and make your garden look terrible. But most importantly, nothing kills them. I’ve seen dandelions soak up bottles of herbicide and toddlers eat handfuls of cereal from inside a dusty vent. Both pests are still here.”

“There’s nothing more evil than a screen. Every modern serial killer has watched television at least once. They probably looked at a computer screen, too. Hell, they even may have used a screen door. And don’t get me started on sunscreen. Have you ever seen a serial killer with sunburn? You don’t need to be a homicidal maniac to recognize the danger of screens. Everything bad shows up on them. Violence. Nudity. Work. That last one always gets me. I can walk away from The Naked Murder Show, but work emails follow me to the bathroom.”
