    To say as I said then!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It is not only their own need to mother that takes some women by surprise; there is also the shock of discovering the complexity of alternative child-care arrangements that have been made to sound so simple. Those for whom the intended solution is equal parenting have found that some parents are more equal than others.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    From time to time I listen to what you are saying, just in case a response is needed.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
