"In the new millennium, we`re fighting against the icon of the perfect mother. I don`t know about here, but in America you`re not allowed to talk about how it`s driving you crazy, or how you don`t like it, or how, if you have to give a bath one more time, you`re going to pull your hair out. Because then you`re considered a bad mom. There`s a very established conversation or litany, which is, `Isn`t motherhood the best?` To me, that question just isn`t applicable. You can complain about your job, you can complain about your husband, you can complain about your friends, but God forbid you complain about your kids."
- Felicity HuffmanAmerica, how can I write a holy litany in your silly mood?
- Allen GinsbergAnd I have this little litany of things they can do. And the first one, of course, is to write - every day, no excuses. It`s so easy to make excuses. Even professional writers have days when they`d rather clean the toilet than do the writing.
