Barbara Walters quotes
A great many people think that polysyllables are a sign of intelligence.
A man cannot be made comfortable without his own approval.
A woman can do anything. She can be traditionally feminine and that's all right; she can work, she can stay at home; she can be aggressive; she can be passive; she can be any way she wants with a man. But whenever there are the kinds of choices there are today, unless you have some solid base, life can be frightening.
