Summary

This quote highlights the unfortunate reality that women only seem to receive attention or recognition when they enter typically male-dominated spaces or activities. It suggests that this attention is not proportionate or equitable, as it implies that women's achievements are not valued or acknowledged until they are able to navigate their way into male-dominated arenas. This quote speaks to the need for greater gender equality and the recognition of women's accomplishments in all areas, rather than solely focusing on their achievements within male-dominated fields.

It struck me that the movies had spent more than half a century saying, They lived happily ever after and the following quarter-century warning that they'll be lucky to make it through the weekend.

Of course, I quiet agree that the Christian religion is, in the long run, a thing of unspeakable discomfort. But it does not begin in comfort; it begins in the dismay and it is no use at all trying to go on to that comfort without first going through that dismay. In religion, as in war and everything else, comfort is one thing you cannot get looking for it. If you look for the truth, you may find comfort in the end: if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth-only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin with and the in the end, despair.
