“One of my mother's friends said to me, 'Your ex-boyfriends didn't stand a chance with you and your mother.' And I think I probably was unfair to them because she was the first person and the last person I called about every single thing. Sorry, ex-boyfriends.” ThinkingFirstsPersonsSaidLastsMotherChanceSorryUnfairExesFirst PersonEx BoyfriendYour Ex Author:Lily Rabe
“The animals share with us the privilege of having a soul Alas, what wickedness to swallow flesh into our own flesh, to fatten our greedy bodies by cramming in other bodies, to have one living creature fed by the death of another! In the midst of such wealth as earth, the best of mothers, provides, yet nothing satisfies you, but to behave like the Cyclopes, inflicting sorry wounds with cruel teeth! You cannot appease the hungry cravings of your wicked, gluttonous stomachs except by destroying some other life.” SoulBodyEarthMotherWealthAnimalShareCreaturesPhilosophicalSorryPrivilegeFleshWoundsHungryTeethBehaveWickedMidstFedsDestroyingGreedyAlasWickednessCravingLiving CreaturesAppeaseAnimal LifeAnimal CompassionCramming Author:Pythagoras
“When I'm on stage, I'm not me playing me. I'm somebody else doing me. I could never go on stage and be like, "Hey, I'm Mike Tyson. My mother and father was in the sex industry." That's the politically correct way to say it, but I would really say, "My mother and father were pimps and whores. This is my life." I could never do that as Mike Tyson. Because I'd feel sorry for myself. But if I could be objective about it and be somebody else, portraying Mike Tyson, saying this story, then it's easy sailing.” IfsWayFeelsStoriesMotherFatherSexEasyStageGoes OnIndustrySorryObjectivesHeyIf I CouldSailingMikeMother And FatherPolitically CorrectTysonPortrayingDoing MePimp Author:Mike Tyson
“Anyway everyboy (sorry) knows that what women have done that is really important is not to constitute a great, cheap labor force that you can zip in when you're at war and zip out again afterwards but to Be Mothers, to form the coming generation, to give birth to them, to nurse them, to mop floors for them, to love them, cook for them, clean for them, change their diapers, pick up after them, and mainly sacrifice themselves for them. This is the most important job in the world. That's why they don't pay you for it.” KnowsWorldGivingImportantWarDoneJobsFormMotherForcePayGenerationsSacrificeBirthPicksLaborCleanSorryCooksNurseDiapersImportant JobsZipsCheap LaborLabor Force Author:Joanna Russ
