“You're three or four different men but each of them out in the open. Like all Americans.”

“Their point of resemblance to each other and their difference from so many American women, lay in the fact that they were all happy to exist in a man's world--they preserved their individuality through men and not by opposition to them. They would all three have made alternatively good courtesans or good wives not by the accident of birth but through the greater accident of finding their man or not finding him.”

“One wife, you're happy, two and you're tired, three and they'll hate each other, four and they'll hate you.”

“As to women, I agree that each has three or four souls, but none of them a reasoning one.”

“Do you realize that one out of every four Americans is unbalanced? Think of your three closest friends. If they seem normal, then you are the one.”

“I'm me and you're you, and all of them out there are them. And we're all so different and equally unimportant.”
