The day I need a television puppet or clown to tell my children what's right and what's wrong, I'll bow out as a mother.

Mother Dear, one day I'm going to turn this world upside down."--From My Brother Martin, by Christine King Farris

Life is only a flicker of melted ice.

My vegetable patch is my pride and joy.

Natural rights [are] the objects for the protection of which society is formed and municipal laws established.

And Thou shalt never, but never be a bystander.
