“Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.”
—Joan Sheingold Ditzion, Dennie, and Palmer Wolf. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)
“If the Almighty had intended for you to be rich, he’d have taken care of that a long time ago. The idea of you being rich, that’s plain blasphemy.”
—Robert Rossen (1908–1966)
