    “Probably the only place where a man can feel really secure is in a maximum security prison, except for the imminent threat of release.”

    —Anonymous Mother. From the Boston Women’s Health Book Collection. Quoted in The Joys of Having a Child, by Bill and Gloria Adler (1993)

    “A daze had come over his mind, he had another centre of consciousness. In his breast, or in his bowels, somewhere in his body, there had started another activity.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
