—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“My list of things I never pictured myself saying when I pictured myself as a parent has grown over the years.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
“Victory wont come
to me unless I go
to it; a grape tendril
ties a knot in knots till
knotted thirty times,”
—Marianne Moore (18871972)
