    “George Peatty: Tell me something, wouldya Sherry? Just tell me one thing. Why did you ever marry me anyway?
    Sherry Peatty: Oh, George. When a man has to ask his wife that, well, he just hadn’t better, that’s all. Why talk about it? Maybe it’s all to the good in the long run. After all, if people didn’t have headaches what would happen to the aspirin industry?”
    —Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    “There was never a sound beside the wood but one,
    And that was my long scythe whispering to the ground.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “The colicky baby who becomes calm, the quiet infant who throws temper tantrums at two, the wild child at four who becomes serious and studious at six all seem to surprise their parents. It is difficult to let go of one’s image of a child, say goodbye to the child a parent knows, and get accustomed to this slightly new child inhabiting the known child’s body.”
    —Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
