- “Alienators think they’re a victim, and when you think you’re a victim, moral rules don’t apply to you”
- “I can’t think of a greater single vehicle to goodness and a better world than if everyone battled their own natures”
- “I don’t understand how any person could humiliate a spouse”
- “A lot of women do a lot of harm because they don’t control their emotions. But in terms of violence, men seem to have a monopoly”
