“We shall never return to social sanity till we begin at the beginning. We must start where all history starts, with a man and a woman, and a child, and with the province of liberty and property which these need for their full humanity.

We stop suddenly with the accidental truncation of today's news; and judge everything by the particular muddle of the moment.”

“Estaba siendo capaz por primera vez, que yo recordara, de permitirme recibir el amor y el cariño de mis padres; no del modo que yo había esperado en otros tiempos, sino del modo en que ellos eran capaces de dármelo. Algo se había abierto dentro de mí. No me importaba cómo podían o no podían quererme, Lo que importaba era cómo podía recibir yo lo que ellos podían darme. Eran los mismos padres de siempre. La diferencia estaba en mí.”

“When people thought of mothers, they smelled cookies baking and chocolate melting. But actual mothers got shit for giving their kids too much sugar. When people thought of mothers, they thought soft and warm and cuddly. But actual mothers went to great lengths to eradicate their soft warm cuddly bits. When people thought of mothers, they thought of mama bears and cheerleaders–fierce love and unconditional support–but actual mothers were accused of coddling and helicoptering.”
