“Yes, I have four children. Four children with whom I spend a good part of every day: bathing them, combing their hair, sitting with them while they do their homework, holding them while they weep their tragic tears. But I'm not in love with any of them. I am in love with my husband.” ChildrenFourTearsHairHusbandSittingOur ChildrenTragicMy HusbandHomeworkBathing Author:Ayelet Waldman
“The mother-child relationship is paradoxical and, in a sense, tragic. It requires the most intense love on the mother's side, yet this very love must help the child grow away from the mother, and to become fully independent.” ChildrenHelpingMotherGrowsSidesMomIndependentParentingMotherhoodIntenseTragicBeing A MomBeing A MotherParadoxicalMotheringMother LoveMother's LoveMother And ChildMother ProverbsMother ChildLove For My MotherIntense LoveMother CareMom And ChildLove MomMother Son RelationshipMotherhood And LoveLove Being A Mom Author:Erich Fromm
“I've played a mother many times, even in tragic things like, "I Dreamed of Africa," so I know how it is to lose a child cinematically. I have so much compassion on so many fronts, for women who have lost children or tried for years and couldn't have them.” KnowsYearsChildrenMotherLostLosesCompassionKnow HowFrontsTragicLost Child Author:Kim Basinger
“As a child, I saw this beautiful film, Dracula's Daughter, and it was with Gloria Holden and was a sequel to the original Dracula. It was all about this beautiful daughter of Dracula who was an artist in London, and she felt drinking blood was a curse. It had beautiful, sensitive scenes in it, and that film mesmerized me. It established to me what vampires werethese elegant, tragic, sensitive people. I was really just going with that feeling when writing Interview With the Vampire. I didn't do a lot of research.” PeopleWritingChildrenFeelingsBeautifulFilmArtistFeltSawsBloodSceneResearchDaughterOriginalsDrinkingLondonVampireCurseSensitiveInterviewsTragicElegantSequelsGloriaHoldenMesmerizedBeautiful Daughter Author:Anne Rice
