Margaret Atwood Quotes

I Begin To Want Things I've Never Wanted Before: Braids, A Dressing-gown, A Purse Of My Own. Something Is Unfolding, Being Revealed To Me. I See That There's A Whole World Of Girls And Their Doings That Has Been Unknown To Me, And That I Can Be Part Of It Without Making Any Effort At All. I Don't Have To Keep Up With Anyone, Run As Fast, Aim As Well, Make Loud Explosive Noises, Decode Messages, Die On Cue. I Don't Have To Think About Whether I've Done These Things Well, As Well As A Boy. All I Have To Do Is Sit On The Floor And Cut Frying Pans Out Of The Eaton's Catalogue With Embroidery Scissors, And Say I've Done It Badly. Partly This Is A Relief.
