I was going to be a writer, and that turned into journalist.

I think what we need to do is to step back as a society and say okay, we've kind of turned things upside-down. We have moved away from the nuclear family, in which the man always works and the woman stays home. How are we going to rearrange things now?

They can talk to me right now, and school me on some things I've never known, and that's amazing, you are a scholar, you are wise, you are educated.

Human life, from the cradle to the grave, is a school. At every period of his existence man wants a teacher. His pilgrimage upon earth is but a term of childhood, in which he is to be educated for the manhood of a brighter world.
