Ash Produced

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or produced:

    Of the crow-blue mussel shells, one keeps
    adjusting the ash heaps;
    opening and shutting itself like

    an
    injured fan.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    We do the same thing to parents that we do to children. We insist that they are some kind of categorical abstraction because they produced a child. They were people before that, and they’re still people in all other areas of their lives. But when it comes to the state of parenthood they are abruptly heir to a whole collection of virtues and feelings that are assigned to them with a fine arbitrary disregard for individuality.
    Leontine Young (20th century)
