9.       "There are times when parenthood seems nothing but feeding the mouth that bites you." 10.    "This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; thebeing thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy."

"Leaking from restaurant walls, beamed into airports as they landed and automobiles as they crashed,chiming from steeples, thundering from parade grounds, tingling through apartment walls, carriedthrough the streets in small boxes, violating even the peace of desert and the forest, where drive-ins featured blue musical comedies, music at first overwhelmed, then delighted, then disgusted, and finally bored them" The children, crying and exhausted, were guided out of the collapsed mine.
