Jane Smiley Quotes

It Was Imperative That The Growing Discord In Our Family Be Made To Appear Minor. The Indication That My Father Truly Was Beside Himself Was The Way He Had Carried His Argument With Us To Others. But We Couldn't Give In To That - We Were Well Trained. We Knew Our Roles And Our Strategies Without Hesitation And Without Consultation. The Paramount Value Of Looking Right Is Not Something You Walk Away From After A Single Night. After Such A Night As We Had, In Fact, It Is Something You Embrace, The Broken Plank You Are Left With After The Ship Has Gone Down.
