“Pride can go without domestics, without fine clothes, can live in a house with two rooms, can eat potato, purslain, beans, lyed corn, can work on the soil, can travel afoot, can talk with poor men, or sit silent well contented with fine saloons.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I think that carrying a baby inside of you is like running as fast as you can. It feels like finally letting go and filling yourself up to the widest limits.”
—Anonymous Mother. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)
“A man may welcome his beloved with circumstance, but a woman’s love and her concern for his well-being are discreet.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
