“Like my father, Donor White could hold in his head the incompatible demands of rationality and irrationality, of facts and love.”
David Plotz, The Genius Factory: The Curious History of the Nobel Prize Sperm Bank

“In the early 1980s, Graham worked hard to turn the Repository into a respectable business, rather than a ludicrous one: Graham's wife didn't like keeping the sperm at the Escondido estate. Not only had the house been picketed, but a Japanese trespasser had once made a run at the sperm, only to be nipped by a family dog.”
David Plotz, The Genius Factory: The Curious History of the Nobel Prize Sperm Bank

“Changing the way we talk is not political correctness run amok. It reflects an admirable willingness to acknowledge others who once were barely visible to the dominant culture, and to recognize that something that may seem innocent to you may be painful to others.”
David Plotz
