Water Baby

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or baby:

    We wished our two souls
    might return like gulls
    to the rock. In the end,
    the water was too cold for us.
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    The myths about what we’re supposed to feel as new mothers run strong and deep. . . . While joy and elation are surely present after a new baby has entered our lives, it is also within the realm of possibility that other feelings might crop up: neediness, fear, ambivalence, anger.
    Sally Placksin (20th century)
