    “I myself have seen the floating ships

    The shouts,

    My mind is graven with ships.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “We may prepare food for our children, chauffeur them around, take them to the movies, buy them toys and ice cream, but nothing registers as deeply as a simple squeeze, cuddle, or pat on the back. There is no greater reassurance of their lovability and worth than to be affectionately touched and held.”
    —Stephanie Martson (20th century)
