Tension Face

Famous quotes containing the words tension and/or face:

“The tension to mother the “right” way can leave a peculiar silence within mother daughter relationships—the silence of a mother’s own truth and experience. Within this silence, a daughter’s authentic voice can also fall silent. This is the silence of perfection. This silence of perfection prevents mothers from listening and learning from their daughters.”
—Elizabeth Debold (20th century)

“I that loved and you that liked, shall we begin to wrangle?
No, no, no, my heart is fast, and cannot disentangle.”
—Unknown. Since First I Saw Your Face (l. 3–4)
