I think it's ill-advised to attribute pathologies to healthy people. It doesn't help normal, healthy, thriving children to be viewed as pitiable and fragile.

We must have moral education in the schools, anti-bullying programs, but this does not mean programs to feminize boys.

We are turning against boys and forgetting a simple truth: that the energy, competitiveness, and corporal daring of normal, decent males is responsible for much of what is right in the world.

I'm concerned that boys have become politically incorrect, that we are a society in the process of turning against its male children.

Toy companies aren't interested in ideology, they want to sell toys. If they would sell a toy that both boys and girls would buy, it doubles profits.

Women are not children. We are not fragile little birds who can't cope with jokes, works of art, or controversial speakers.

I think the fallacy is to think that Women's Liberation meant that men and women would become interchangeable. That has not happened, and most men and women would not want it to happen.

Trigger warnings and safe spaces are an infantilizing setback for feminism - and for women.

It's good to raise awareness that men and boys are struggling, at least many of them are. But why say men are finished? It's too harsh, too sweeping, and it happens to not be true.

A poet is not an apostle

Take not God's name in vain; select a time when it will have effect.

You must be willing to give total unconditional love to everyone, under all circumstances. That means being willing to be totally responsible for what you do and how you do it.

It's the possibility that when you're dead you might still go on hurting that bothers me.

Every invention creates new needs, but the biggest needs are not for new and more advanced versions of the last invention but for solutions to the social problems the last invention created.

Dear young people, do not be afraid of making decisive choices in life. Have faith; the Lord will not abandon you!

I worry a lot about taking care of my dependents, all those perfectly ordinary middle-class preoccupations.

To emphasize the afterlife is to deny life. To concentrate on heaven is to create hell.

Medicine is the keystone of the arch of socialism.

I see a good deal of talk from Washington about lowering taxes-I hope they do get 'em lowered enough so people can afford to pay 'em
