| |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | Birth and death are not two different states, but they are different aspects of the same state. There is as little reason to deplore the one as there is to be pleased over the other. | | Mahatma Gandhi | | | Birth is nothing where virtue is not | | Moliere | | | For neither birth, nor wealth, nor honors, can awaken in the minds of men the principles which should guide those who from their youth aspire to an honorable and excellent life, as Love awakens them | | Plato | | | Giving birth is like taking your lower lip and forcing it over your head. | | Carol Burnett | | | I do not believe that the accident of birth makes people sisters and brothers. It makes them siblings. Gives them mutuality of parentage. Sisterhood and brotherhood are conditions people have to work at. It's a serious matter. You compromise, you give, you take, you stand firm, and you're relentless...And it is an investment. Sisterhood means if you happen to be in Burma and I happen to be in San Diego and I'm married to someone who is very jealous and you're married to somebody who is very possessive, if you call me in the middle of the night, I have to come. | | Maya Angelou | | | | | Quotes: 1 - 6 of 6 | Pages: 1 | | | |
