Foreign Women

Famous quotes containing the words foreign and/or women:

    Man-in-seed, in seed-at-zero,
    From the star-flanked fields of space,
    Thunders on the foreign town
    With a sand-bagged garrison....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    I had heard so much about how hard it was supposed to be that, when they were little, I thought it would be horrible when they got married and left. But that’s silly you know. . . . By the time they grow up, they change and you change. Eventually, they’re not the same little kids and you’re not the same mother. It’s as if everything just falls into a pattern and you’re ready.
    —Anonymous Mother. As quoted in Women of a Certain Age, by Lillian B. Rubin, ch. 2 (1979)
