Famous quotes containing the words heart and/or mother:
“In every tyrant’s heart there springs in the end
This poison, that he cannot trust a friend.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 BC)
“It was palpable, all that wanting: Mother wanting something more, Dad wanting something more, everyone wanting something more. This wasn’t going to do for us fifties girls; we were going to have to change the equation even if it meant . . . abstaining from motherhood, because clearly that was where Mother got caught.”
—Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)
