Lorrie Moore Quotes
She Had To Learn Not To Be Afraid Of A Man, The Way, In Your Childhood, You Learned Not To Be Afraid Of An Earthworm Or A Bug. Often, When She Spoke To Men At Parties, She Rushed Things In Her Mind. As The Man Politely Blathered On, She Would Fall In Love, Marry, Then Find Herself In A Bitter Custody Battle With Him For The Kids And Hoping For A Reconciliation, So That Despite All His Betrayals She Might No Longer Despise Him, And In The Few Minutes Remaining, Learn, Perhaps, What His Last Name Was, And What He Did For A Living, Though Probably There Was Already Too Much History Between Them.
