1 " ...For having a baby's sweet face so close to your own, for so long a time as it takes to nurse 'em, is a great tonic for a sad soul. "
― Erica Eisdorfer , The Wet Nurse's Tale
2 " ...I understand what my body's for. My bosom is as deep as all the oceans and my hips as wide as the fields... "
3 " Losing a baby is not a thing that you could ever get used to, I don't believe. "
4 " That's the difference between us {the poor} and them {the rich}, I thought. We know all of what's bad because we can't keep from it. They live in their big houses and the walls are thick enough around them to keep the bad out. "
5 " ...you suffer the rich to do as they wish and hold the less fortunate to a higher standard. Tis unfair and tis the dirty part of the world that we all live in, but there it is just the same. "
