Jonathan Safran Foer Quotes
No Baby Knows When The Nipple Is Pulled From His Mouth For The Last Time. No Child Knows When He Last Calls His Mother "Mama." No Small Boy Knows When The Book Has Closed On The Last Bedtime Story That Will Ever Be Read To Him. No Boy Knows When The Water Drains From The Last Bath He Will Ever Take With His Brother. No Young Man Knows, As He First Feels His Greatest Pleasure, That He Will Never Again Not Be Sexual. No Brinking Woman Knows, As She Sleeps, That It Will Be Four Decades Before She Will Again Awake Infertile. No Mother Knows She Is Hearing The Word Mama For The Last Time. No Father Knows When The Book Has Closed On The Last Bedtime Story He Will Ever Read: From That Day On, And For Many Years To Come, Peace Reigned On The Island Of Ithaca, And The Gods Looked Favorably Upon Odysseus, His Wife, And His Son.
