I feel very strongly that young women have regressed a little bit. But I do get all preachy about it.
Today, American women bear an average of 2.2 children that live to adulthood. Across most of Europe, women bear even fewer young.

When a writer first begins to write, he or she feels the same first thrill of achievement that the young gambler or oboe player feels: winning a little, losing some, the gambler sees the glorious possibilities, exactly as the young oboist feels an in...
Their arrogance protected them against any liking for their fellow-man, against the slightest interest in the strangers sitting all about them, amidst whom M. de Stermaria adopted the manner one has in the buffet-car of a train, grim, hurried, stand-...
