Famous quotes containing the words lillian and/or thomas:

    I had heard so much about how hard it was supposed to be that, when they were little, I thought it would be horrible when they got married and left. But that’s silly you know. . . . By the time they grow up, they change and you change. Eventually, they’re not the same little kids and you’re not the same mother. It’s as if everything just falls into a pattern and you’re ready.
    —Anonymous Mother. As quoted in Women of a Certain Age, by Lillian B. Rubin, ch. 2 (1979)

    I cannot speke and loke lyke a saynct,
    Use wiles for witt and make deceyt a pleasure,
    And call crafft counsell, for proffet styll to paint.
    I cannot wrest the law to fill the coffer
    With innocent blode to fede my sellff fat,
    And doo most hurt where most hellp I offer.
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)
