Famous quotes containing the words mouth and/or mirrors:
“As long as the “woman’s work” that some men do is socially devalued, as long as it is defined as woman’s work, as long as it’s tacked onto a “regular” work day, men who share it are likely to develop the same jagged mouth and frazzled hair as the coffee-mug mom. The image of the new man is like the image of the supermom: it obscures the strain.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“My own voice spoke to people,
anyone, friends, strangers on the street, saying,
“I am Mr. Rabbit.” The flesh itself had become mad
and at three mirrors this was confirmed.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
