Baby Taylor

Famous quotes containing the words baby and/or taylor:

    the gentleness of wine in his fingertips,
    where do these hands come from?
    I was born a glass baby and nobody picked me up
    except to wash the dust off me.
    He has picked me up and licked me alive.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Let’s just call what happened in the eighties the reclamation of motherhood . . . by women I knew and loved, hard-driving women with major careers who were after not just babies per se or motherhood per se, but after a reconciliation with their memories of their own mothers. So having a baby wasn’t just having a baby. It became a major healing.
    —Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)
