Lydia Davis Quotes

But I Think Her Feelings About Our Mother Were A Heavy Burden In Her Life, At Least When They Were Together. When Our Mother Was Far Away, Maybe She Could Forget Her. Our Mother Was Always Stepping On Her To Get Up Higher, Always Needing To Be Right, Always Needing To Be Better Than Her, And Than All Of Us, Most Of The Time. The Terrible Innocence Of Our Mother, Too, As She Did That. She Had No Idea, Most Of The Time.
