“As her sons have seen her: the mother in patriarchy: controlling, erotic, castrating, heart-suffering, guilt-ridden, and guilt-provoking; a marble brow, a huge breast, an avid cave; between her legs snakes, swampgrass, or teeth; on her lap a helpless infant or a martyred son. She exists for one purpose: to bear and nourish the son.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“I have since written what no tide
Shall ever wash away, what men
Unborn shall read o’er ocean wide
And find Ianthe’s name agen.”
—Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)
“Divinity of hell!
When devils will the blackest sins put on,
They do suggest at first with heavenly shows,
As I do now.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
