“You can't control another person. It doesn't matter how much you love them. You can't love someone back to health and you can't hate someone back to health and no matter how right you are about something, it doesn't mean they will change their mind.”

“Deming's a child, he doesn't get to decide."
Leon snorted. "A mother is supposed to sacrifice for her son, not the other way around."
"You better take that back." This man I had slept next to for years, this man I was supposed to marry-- he'd never known me. "Take that back right now."
A mother was supposed to lay down and die for her children, and Leon got to be called Yi Ba because he watched TV with you several afternoons a week. If he bought you a cheap toy, Vivian would crow, "How thoughtful!" and when he took you to the park the neighbors complimented him for being such a good daddy. But no one called me a good mama when I did those things.”
