“So I begin to understand why my mother’s radar is so sensitive to criticism. She still treads the well-worn ruts of her youth, when her impression of mother was of a woman hard to please, frequently negative, and rarely satisfied with anyone—least of all herself.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
“I think no virtue goes with size;
The reason of all cowardice
Is, that men are overgrown,
And, to be valiant, must come down
To the titmouse dimension.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It takes the moon for this. The sun’s a wizard
By all I tell; but so’s the moon a witch.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
