 How hard can this be? If I go out there with a good résumé - which I created - looking for a PR job, and use every possible resource, I should have a good job in four to six months.

 I couldn't help but feel, I won't say rejected - but I so seldom got a nibble of any kind - that I just felt ignored and completely invisible. I've done a lot of things in my life and faced many different kinds of challenges, usually successfully, but here I was completely unable to get a foot in the door.

 I had too much else to do. I didn't want to turn into a newspaper columnist full time.

 I never imagined I'd have that sort of reputation.

 I was raised the old-fashioned way, with a stern set of moral principles: Never lie, cheat, steal or knowingly spread a venereal disease. Never speed up to hit a pedestrian or, or course, stop to kick a pedestrian who has already been hit. From which it followed, of course, that one would never ever -- on pain of deletion from dozens of Christmas card lists across the country -- vote Republican.

 I'm not a nice person.

 If men were equally at risk from this condition -- if they knew their bellies might swell as if they were suffering from end-stage cirrhosis, that they would have to go nearly a year without a stiff drink, a cigarette, or even an aspirin, that they would be subject to fainting spells and unable to fight their way onto commuter trains -- then I am sure that pregnancy would be classified as a sexually transmitted disease and abortions would be no more controversial than emergency appendectomies.

 If that's how it all started, then we might as well face the fact that what's left out there is a great deal of shrapnel and a whole bunch of cinders (one of which is, fortunately, still hot enough and close enough to be good for tanning).

 In sci-fi convention, life-forms that hadn't developed space travel were mere prehistory - horse-shoe crabs of the cosmic scene - and something of the humiliation of being stuck on a provincial planet in a galactic backwater has stayed with me ever since.

 It is the marketplace that calls most clearly for men to be softer, more narcissistic and receptive, and the new man is the result.

 It seems to me that there must be an ecological limit to the number of paper pushers the earth can sustain, and that human civilization will collapse when the number of, say, tax lawyers exceeds the world's total population of farmers, weavers, fisherpersons, and pediatric nurses.

 Like many other women, I could not understand why every man who changed a diaper has felt impelled, in recent years, to write a book about it.

 Marriage is socialism among two people.

 My Turn is the distilled bathwater of Mrs. Reagan's life. It is for the most part sweetish, with a tart edge of rebuke, but disappointingly free of dirt or particulate matter of any kind.
