Text Quotes
I have decided to tell the story of my life as best I can, so that my children can separate the truth from the myths that others have created about me, as myths are created about everyone swept up in the turbulent and distorting maelstrom of celebrity in our culture  (My Children Quotes) I’m always in favor of more glamour. I embarrass my children, I think. I am the lady in feathers in the car pool line  (My Children Quotes) It’s with a heavy heart that I have decided that I can’t relocate. I have two babies under 4. being a mother and wife comes first and I just can not uproot my children and separate the family by moving away. I will miss this job desperately and wish everyone the absolute best  (My Children Quotes) I never thought I was a great mom. I always worked. I fell in love with my children as they got older  (My Children Quotes) Telling my children was the toughest part. But that’s when you get strong, because you have to be strong for other people  (My Children Quotes) A child isn’t born bitter. I point no fingers as to who tainted the clean, pure pool of my childhood. Let’s just say that when I realized that I didn’t want to grow up, the damage was already done. Knowing that being grown up was no swell place to be means that you are grown up enough to notice. And you can’t go back from there. You have to forge another route, draw your own map  (My Children Quotes) I know I can’t make time slow down, can’t hold our life as it is in a freeze frame or slow my children’s inexorable journeys into adulthood and lives of their own. But I can celebrate those journeys by bearing witness to them, by paying attention, and, perhaps most of all, by carrying on with my own growth and becoming. Now it dawns on me that the only way I can figure out what I’m meant to be doing is to try to understand who I’m meant to be... I will not waste this life, not one hour, not one minute. I will not take for granted the blessing of our being here... I will give thanks  (My Children Quotes) No more bare bodies in film scenes for me. For my children’s sake, I must stop. The other kids at school keep throwing it up to my children, and they are not kind  (My Children Quotes) I love living with animals. And my children love animals. I love walking around and being with the horses. But the deer? They’re naughty  (My Children Quotes) The life of an ant and the life of my child should be accorded equal respect  (My Children Quotes) How will I be remembered by my children? This is the true measure of a man  (My Children Quotes) I struggle with enormous discrepancies: between the reality of motherhood and the image of it, between my love for my home and the need to travel, between the varied and seductive paths of the heart. The lessons of impermanance, the occasional despair and the muse, so tenuously moored, all visit their needs upon me and I dig deeply for the spiritual utilities that restore me: my love for the place, for the one man left, for my children and friends and the great green pulse of spring  (My Children Quotes) Teaching my kids to give back is an essential part of parenting. It’s not something that’s optional. Compassion is one of the basic values that I want my children to have: that if they see a need, whether it’s around the corner or thousands of miles of away, they should feel motivated to do whatever they can to help  (My Children Quotes) I’m hoping my children will save me from my vanity. If it doesn’t, plastic surgery is an option... It sucks to have to grow older. We all have to accept it  (My Children Quotes) My childhood was protected by love and a comfortable home. Yet, while still a very young child, I began instinctively to feel that there was something lacking, even in my own home, some false conception of family relations, some incomplete ideal  (My Children Quotes) Whether it was hunting, fishing, or playing sports, my children were going to grow up outside. They weren’t going to be sitting on the couch inside. At least they didn’t grow up to be nerds  (My Children Quotes) I know that many people disagree with the way I disciplined my child. I also understand after meeting with a psychologist that there are other alternative ways of disciplining a child that may be more appropriate  (My Children Quotes) It is a matter of great satisfaction to me to hope that my children will be in circumstances to receive a good education. Mine was defective and I feel the inconvenience, if not the misfortune of not receiving a classical education. Knowledge is the food of genius, and my son, let no opportunity escape you to treasure up knowledge  (My Children Quotes) If I could teach my children only one thing, it would be the skill of marketing. For with that skill, they could be successful at anything they chose for the rest of their lives  (My Children Quotes) Mom used to frame everything we made, and now I’m following her example. It makes children so proud to see their work on display instead of hidden away. I figure if I take my children’s work seriously, maybe they will too. And it reinforces the idea that art is not something alien and esoteric. Anyone can make art  (My Children Quotes) I find the positive in the negative all the time. Any time you give something power, it wins, and it can continuously happen, so I just let negative people know they have no place in my life. They have no place around my children  (My Children Quotes) People of color have to do this work as a mater of everyday survival. And so long as they have to, who am I to act as if I have a choice in the matter? Especially when my future and that of my children in large part depends on the eradication of racism? There is no choice  (My Children Quotes) Because of my bipolar disorder, I tend to these mixed states, which are depressed but loud and agitated. So I can be terribly irritable. I go to cognitive behavioral therapy in order not to yell at my children  (My Children Quotes) I have no doubt that over the years my children will find plenty of things about me to criticize. But something tells me that twenty years from now not one of them will sit on some therapist’s couch complaining because their mother didn’t spend enough time vacuuming up glitter  (My Children Quotes) There have been times when I wanted children and other times I’ve been grateful not to have them. I am a mess if I have to say goodbye to my dog for longer than five days. I don’t know how I would deal with kissing my children as I left for work. I know there are women who are able to do that. I don’t know if I could  (My Children Quotes) For those that say I endanger my child: it’s more likely that you will fall while walking on the sidewalk than I will while skating with my daughter  (My Children Quotes) It’s not that I bounce ideas off of my children as much as it is that having children has had a profound effect on the way I see the world. They have mined my soul. They’ve made me a better person and therefore a more empathetic writer  (My Children Quotes) When my children hear godliness out of my mouth and they see wickedness in my life, then I point them to heaven and I lead them to hell  (My Children Quotes) It was the seventh deadly sin. My children weren’t righteous. They stumbled because I was evil. The way I was raising them they could never be saved. They were doomed to perish in the fires of hell  (My Children Quotes) I’m free... to think and to speak. My ancestors couldn’t. I can. And my children will  (My Children Quotes)
