Giving Birth

Famous quotes containing the words giving and/or birth:

“It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life’s parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. ... Death does away with time.”
—Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)

“For birth was a disease and Christopher and I invented the cure.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
