William Maxwell Quotes
Without The Heavy Set Aristocratic Man Snoring Away On His Side Of The Bed, Without The Fresh-eyed Child Whose Hair Ribbon Needs Retying; Without The Conversation At Meals And The Hearty Appetites And Getting Dressed For Church On Time; Without The Tears Of Laughter Or The Worry About Making Both Ends Meet, The Unpaid Bills, The Layoffs, Both Seasonal And Unexpected; Without The Toys That Have To Picked Up Lest Somebody Trip Over Them, And The Seven Shirts That Have To Be Washed And Ironed, One For Every Day In The Week; Without The Scraped Knee And The Hurt Feelings, The Misunderstandings That Need To Be Cleared Up, The Voices Calling For Her So That She Is Perpetually Having To Stop What She Is Doing And Go See What They Want - Without All This, What Have You? A Mystery: How Is It That She Didn't Realize It Was Going To Last Such A Short Time?
