If parents would only realize how they bore their children!

Motherhood is the strangest thing, it can be like being one’s own Trojan horse.

It’s frightening to think that you mark your children merely by being yourself… it seems unfair. You can’t assume the responsibility for everything you do—or don’t do.

Mother died today. Or maybe it was yesterday, I don’t know.

Nobody, who has not been in the interior of a family, can say what the difficulties of any individual of that family may be.

By and large, mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacationless class.
