I do get a sense that there's a huge disconnect between the political powers and what's really happening, so right-wing conservatives can talk about contraception all they want, but the women of america are using birth control. it's as simple as that.

Simple Wings America

More From Anna Quindlen

I've always thought the american eagle needed a left wing and a right wing. the right wing would see to it that economic interests had their legitimate concerns addressed. the left wing would see to it that ordinary people were included in the bargain. both would keep the great bird on course. but with two right wings or two left wings, it's no longer an eagle and it's going to crash.

The left have taken a really beautiful thing, male-female relationships, and turned them into a battle, a political battle, an ideological war. and if you doubt me, what is the war on women? what the hell is it? how crazy is that entire concept, that there is a political party conducting a war on women because they hate them. and the fact that they can sell that to their voters and make political gain on that basis is damn amazing to me. and yet how many people do you know who really believe that there's a war on women, that republicans/conservatives don't like women?

People are distracted by objects of desire, and afterwards repent of the lust they've indulged, because they have indulged with a phantom and are left even farther from reality than before. your desire for the illusory is a wing, by means of which a seeker might ascend to reality. when you have indulged a lust, your wing drops off; you become lame and that fantasy flees. preserve the wing and don't indulge such lust, so that the wing of desire may bear you to paradise. people fancy they are enjoying themselves, but they are really tearing out their wings for the sake of an illusion.

There are two forms of populism, left-wing populism and right-wing populism. right-wing populism requires the denigration of an "other." left-wing populism tends to be about the haves and have-nots.

The way the left is reacting to the death of fidel castro up against the incontrovertible facts of who he was, you want to talk about a disconnect. in fact, i don't think it is a disconnect. i think the left, the power brokers, the leaders, i think they actually did admire the guy. i think this is what they think castro's power - i've always said, the people have asked me, how do these actors and people and these leftist politicians, how come they admire people like this? i said, "they envy their power." and i think there may be a lot to that.

I think it no accident that most of those emigrating to america in the 19th century identified with the democratic party. we are a heterogeneous party made up of americans of diverse backgrounds.

I was still owed an explanation, i thought, but so what? what good was it going to do me? it wouldn't have made me any happier. it was like scratching when you have chicken pox. you think it's going to help, but the itch moves over, and then moves over again. my itch suddenly felt miles away, and i couldn't have reached it with the longest arms in the world. realizing that made me scared that i was going to be itchy forever, and i didn't want that.

I think everybody has a secret life.
