"In every interview I have ever read or seen or taken part in, the final question in our future-oriented society is always, What next?"

"We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology."

"There's no such thing as turning back the hands of time, and it makes me crazy that we live in a society where that's sold to women—that we're supposed to believe that if we're getting older, we've failed somehow, that we have failed by not staying young. I wish that women would let other women age gracefully and allow them to get older and know that as we get older, we become wiser."

"Convenience is not an acceptable foundational value for society. It’s a disease."

"It's good to know that if I behave strangely enough, society will take full responsibility for me."

"If people did not compliment one another there would be little society."

"In a completely rational society, the best of us would be teachers and the rest of us would have to settle for something else."

"If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich."

"Our society distributes itself into Barbarians, Philistines, and Populace."

"Our society distributes itself into Barbarians, Philistines and Populace; and America is just ourselves with the Barbarians quite left out, and the Populace nearly."

"If society fits you comfortably enough, you call it freedom."

"You can be a little ungrammatical if you come from the right part of the country."

“For a society is always most cruel to those who disclose and reveal its secrets, when through dishonesty society itself has outraged Nature.”
