Famous quotes containing the words crosstown and/or line:

    The three of them are enveloped
    turning now to go crosstown in their
    sense of each other, of pleasure,
    of weather, of corners,
    of leisurely tensions between them
    and private silence.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    The middle years of parenthood are characterized by ambiguity. Our kids are no longer helpless, but neither are they independent. We are still active parents but we have more time now to concentrate on our personal needs. Our children’s world has expanded. It is not enclosed within a kind of magic dotted line drawn by us. Although we are still the most important adults in their lives, we are no longer the only significant adults.
    —Ruth Davidson Bell. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
