“The frequency of personal questions grows in direct proportion to your increasing girth. . . .

No matter how much you wish for privacy, your pregnancy is a public event to which everyone feels invited.”
—Jean Marzollo (20th century)
“The air has finally gotten to the place that we can breathe it together.”
—Septima Clark (18981987)
“They relieve and recommend each other, and the sanity of society is a balance of a thousand insanities. She punishes abstractionists, and will only forgive an induction which is rare and casual.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
