What One Has Not Experienced, One Will

With What Price We Pay For The Glory Of Motherhood.

If I Could Say It, I Would Not Have To Dance It.

The Wind? I Am The Wind. The Sea And The Moon? I Am The Sea And The Moon. Tears, Pain, Love, Bird-flights? I Am All Of Them. I Dance What I Am. Sin, Prayer, Flight, The Light That Never Was On Land Or Sea? I Dance What I Am.

I Hope That Schools Have Changed Since I Was A Little Girl. My Memory Of The Teaching Of The Public Schools Is That It Showed The Brutal Incomprehension Of Children.

It Is Unheard-of, Uncivilized Barbarism That Any Woman Should Still Be Forced To Bear Such Monstrous Torture. It Should Be Remedied. It Should Be Stopped. It Is Simply Absurd That, With Our Modern Science, Painless Childbirth Does Not Exist As A Matter Of Course.... I Tremble With Indignation When I Think Ofthe Unspeakable Egotism And Blindness Of Men Of Science Who Permit Such Atrocities When They Can Be Remedied.
