Needed

Famous quotes containing the word needed:

    We found ourselves always torn between the mothers in our heads and the women we needed to become simply to stay alive.With one foot in the past and another in the future, we hobbled through first love, motherhood, marriage, divorce, careers, menopause, widowhood—never knowing what or who we were supposed to be, staking out new emotional territory at every turn—like pioneers.
    Erica Jong (20th century)

    They were steps for me, and I climbed up over them—to do so I needed to go on past them. But they supposed I wanted to settle down on them.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Let us reform our schools, and we shall find little reform needed in our prisons.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)
