    —Charles Krauthammer (b. 1950)

    “Every man has been brought up with the idea that decent women don’t pop in and out of bed; he has always been told by his mother that “nice girls don’t.” He finds, of course, when he gets older that this may be untrue—but only in a certain section of society.”
    —Barbara Cartland (b. 1901)

    “It is not part of a true culture to tame tigers, any more than it is to make sheep ferocious.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
