Famous quotes containing the word work:

    Now you grab me by the ankles.
    Now you work your way up the legs
    and come to pierce me at my hunger mark.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    However diligent she may be, however dedicated, no mother can escape the larger influences of culture, biology, fate . . . until we can actually live in a society where mothers and children genuinely matter, ours is an essentially powerless responsibility. Mothers carry out most of the work orders, but most of the rules governing our lives are shaped by outside influences.
    Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
