More From Sharon Olds

From woman, man is born; within woman, man is conceived; to woman he is engaged and married. woman becomes his friend; through woman, the future generations come. when his woman dies, he seeks another woman; to woman he is bound. so why call her bad? from her, kings are born. from woman, woman is born; without woman, there would be no one at all.
Kings Men Generations
I want my daughters to see me and know me as a woman who works. i want that example set for them... i am a better mother for it. the woman i am because i get to run shondaland, because i get write all day, because i get to spend my days making things up, that woman is a better person - and a better mother. because that woman is happy. that woman is fulfilled. that woman is whole. i wouldn't want them to know the me who didn't get to do this all day long. i wouldn't want them to know the me who wasn't doing.
Daughter Mother Running
We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. we make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. when one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? the woman is born from woman; there is none without her. only the one true lord is without woman

India was the motherland of our race, and sanskrit the mother of europe's languages: she was the mother of our philosophy; mother, through the arabs, of much of our mathematics; mother, through the buddha, of the ideals embodied in christianity; mother, through the village community, of self-government and democracy. mother india is in many ways the mother of us all.

My mother got sick when i was rich. and my mother, you know … i don’t really want to get into it, but my mother was sicker than my father. and my mother’s alive. my mother’s fine, ok? i remember going to the hospital to see my mother and wondering, ‘was i in the right place?’ like, this was a hotel. like it had a concierge, man. if the average person really knew the discrepancy in the health care system, there’d be riots in the streets, ok? they would burn this m-therf—ker down!

Before the moon i am, what a woman is, a woman of power, a woman's power, deeper than the roots of trees, deeper than the roots of islands, older than the making, older than the moon.

Man is the only animal that learns by being hypocritical. he pretends to be polite and then, eventually, he becomes polite.
Women Memorable Learning
The women of my mother's generation had, in the main, only one decision to make about their lives: who they would marry. from that, so much else followed: where they would live, in what sort of conditions, whether they would be happy or sad or, so often, a bit of both. there were roles and there were rules.

Never use the word “cheap”. today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). there is good clothing design on every level today. you can be the chicest thing in the world in a t-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.
