Baby

Famous quotes containing the word baby:

    For the baby suckles and there is a people made of milk for her to use. There are milk trees to hiss her on. There are milk beds in which to lie and dream of a warm room. There are milk fingers to fold and unfold. There are milk bottoms that are wet and caressed and put into their cotton.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Your old skin puckering, your lungs’ breath
    Grown baby short as you looked up last
    At my face swinging over the human bed,
    And somewhere you cried, let me go let me go.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    In the best of all possible worlds, childbirth enriches a marriage. In the worst, it harms it. No matter how good their marriage is, most couples find that having a baby challenges their relationship.
    Jean Marzollo (20th century)
