Lola’s Quotes

“Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Does it improve upon the silence?”
― Mona Simpson, Casebook

“Advice for wives circa 1896: The indiscriminate reading of novels is one of the most injurious habits to which a married woman can be subject. Besides the false views of human nature it will impart … it produces an indifference to the performance of domestic duties, and contempt for ordinary realities.”
― Jenny Offill, Dept. of Speculation
