"Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place.
If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!"
-- The Red Queen, Through the Looking Glass: And What Alice Found There

"Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body."
-- Elizabeth Stone

"The difficulty of IVF or of any fertility issues is the hope and the shattered hope, the dream that it might happen this time and then it doesn't happen."
-- Brooke Shields

"The notion is called wabi-sabi: life, like the cherry blossom, is beautiful because of its impermanence, not in spite of it, more exquisite for the inevitability of loss."
-- Peggy Orenstein, Waiting For Daisy
