“Niceness is all about what we do when other people are looking. Kindness, on the other hand, runs deep. Kindness is what happens when no one’s looking.”

“We treat ejaculation as something that happens at random, that is unintentional, that is impossible to anticipate or predict. And we treat ovulation like it can be pinpointed well in advance and easily predicted. Somehow, we’ve confused the two.”

“Five decades of work. It’s strange when you think about it, because if men were actually interested in reducing abortion, it didn’t need to take fifty years. At any point, men could have eliminated elective abortions in a very short amount of time—a matter of weeks—without ever touching an abortion law, without legislating about women’s bodies, without even mentioning women. All men had to do was ejaculate responsibly. They chose not to. Today, they continue to choose not to.”

“Habib Rides Backwards
One day, Habib wanted to go give a lesson in the school. There were some students with him, but he rode his donkey backwards. So one student asked him in astonishment, “Why do you ride on your donkey backwards?”
Habib said to him, “If I were riding him in the straight way, then you would all be behind me. And if you were in front of me, then I would be behind you. Therefore, my riding backwards is correct.”
