Alice Sebold Quotes

My Father Worked Behind Closed Doors Inside The House, Had A Huge Ancient Latin Dictionary On A Wrought-iron Stand, Spoke Spanish On The Phone, And Drank Sherry And Ate Raw Meat, In The Form Of Chorizo, At Five O'clock. Until The Day In The Yard With My Playmate I Thought This Was What Fathers Did. Then I Began To Catalog And Notice. They Mowed Lawns. They Drank Beer. They Played In The Yard With Their Kids, Walked Around The Block With Their Wives, Piled Into Campers, And, When They Went Out, Wore Joke Ties Or Polo Shirts, Not Phi Beta Kappa Keys And Tailored Vests.
