Experimental science is fascinating, but I dont want to do it. I want other people to do it, and Ill read about it. – Barbara Ehrenreich
The label of liberalism is hardly a sentence to public ignominy: otherwise Bruce Springsteen would still be rehabilitating used Cadillacs in Asbury Park and Jane Fonda, for all we know, would be just another overweight housewife. – Barbara Ehrenreich
The one regret I have about my own abortions is that they cost money that might otherwise have been spent on something more pleasurable, like taking the kids to movies and theme parks. – Barbara Ehrenreich
