Routes Meet

Famous quotes containing the words routes and/or meet:

“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)

“He smiles
and all the effrontery of all my race
rises to meet his smiling, cynical face,
and all my effrontery and all my wiles
blanch and wither
beside his enchanting smiles.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
