Quotes by Henriette Mantel (?)

“I’m not even a very good plant mommy, truthfully; as I reflect, my plants are all thirsty most of the time. I wait until they scream out in terror before I remember to water them. Several have jumped right off my terrace ledge in search of an owner who will love them. I am just not a nurturer.”
― Henriette Mantel, No Kidding: Women Writers on Bypassing Parenthood
