“I am too sick to work and haven't money enough to last 2 months and pay income tax. I want to keep going but do not see quite how, and there is no alternative - rather than justify my mother's 25-year dread of my "coming back on her, sick," I must kill myself. If she has to pay funeral costs, at least she will cut them to the bone and I will not be here to endure her martyrdom and prolong it by living.” IfsWantYearsEnoughLastsMotherPayCuttingHavensMonthsCostTaxesSickEndureBonesIncomeAlternativesJustifyKeep GoingFuneralDreadComing BackIncome TaxMartyrdom Author:Rose Wilder Lane

An automobile is regarded with fond affection, a typewriter becomes the inseparable companion, clothes can stir sentimentality, and the bit of bric-a-brac is a toy one would weep to see torn away - but houses are real, deep, emotional things. How much excitement in the cutting of a window, what enormous importance in the angle of a roof!” RealJoyHouseBitsEmotionCuttingEmotionalClothesAll ThingsWindowImportanceAffectionEnormousExcitementCompanionToysRoofAngleTornAutomobileAbidingInseparableStirringTypewritersSentimentalityEmotional ThingsBricsDeep EmotionalReal Deep Author:Rose Wilder Lane
