Most of the essays were good, but some felt like repeats from previous ones. Despite this, each one taught me something and is worth the read.

By reading this book I have found two new quotes to live by:

1. "I don't hate men as individuals. ...  I have, however, increasingly little patience with men as a social phenomenon."
2. "There's no point being nice in a burning world."
