Margaret Atwood Quotes
On The Whole She Fares Better With The Men, If They Can Work Their Way Past The Awkward Preliminaries; If They Can Avoid Calling Her "little Lady," Or Saying They Weren't Expecting Her To Be So Feminine, By Which They Mean Short. Though Only The Most Doddering Ones Do That Any More. If She Weren't So Tiny, Though, She'd Never Get Away With It. If She Were Six Feet Tall And Built Like A Blockhouse; If She Had Hips. Then She'd Be Threatening, Then She'd Be An Amazon. It's The Incongruity That Grants Her Permission. A Breath Would Blow You Away, They Beam Down At Her Silently. You Wish, Thinks Tony, Smiling Up. Many Have Blown.
