Maureen Dowd - A Woman Who Found a Way to Write - New York Times: "Leon Wieseltier, the literary editor of The New Republic, eulogized her last week: 'She was venerable without any of the fuss of venerability; worldly, but thoroughly incorruptible; hilarious, but ruthlessly in earnest; unexpected, but magnificently consistent; wicked, but good. She could be skeptical and sentimental in the very same moment. She set things right just by being in the midst of them.'"
