Sheila Heti
“When I was younger, thinking about whether I wanted children, I always came back to this formula: if no one had told me anything about the world, I would have invented boyfriends. I would have invented sex, friendship, art. I would not have invented child-rearing.”
Sheila Heti, Motherhood

Peggy O'Mara
“The way we talk to our children becomes their inner voice.”
Peggy O'Mara
