Famous quotes containing the words victoria and/or dock:

    “Sometimes my wife complains that she’s overwhelmed with work and just can’t take one of the kids, for example, to a piano lesson. I’ll offer to do it for her, and then she’ll say, “No, I’ll do it.” We have to negotiate how much I trespass into that mother role—it’s not given up easily.”
    —Anonymous Father. As quoted in Women and Their Fathers, by Victoria Secunda, ch. 3 (1992)

    “You turn
    To speak to someone beside the dock and the lighthouse
    Shines like garnets. It has become a stricture.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
