I believe that the souls of women flatten and anchor themselves in times of adversity, lay in for the stay. I've heard that when elephants are attacked they often run, not away, but toward each other. Perhaps it is because they are a matriarchal society.
Elizabeth Berg
I cried until my eyes swelled shut, and then I slept, a black, dreamless sleep from which I awoke amazingly refreshed, at least until I remembered.
Elizabeth Berg
No one wants to mother more vigilantly than a woman who is childless and wishes she wasn’t.
Elizabeth Berg
It is never about how good your voice is it is only about feeling the urge to sing, and then having the courage to do it with the voice you are given.
Elizabeth Berg
I believe that the souls of women flatten and anchor themselves in times of adversity, lay in for the stay.
Elizabeth Berg
One thing I have always been is too short. It's adorable when you're in junior high. After that, it's a pain in the ass for the rest of your life.
Elizabeth Berg
We are assumed to be rather hopeless - swallowed up by incorrect notions, divorced from the original genius with which we are born, lost within days of living this distracting life.
Elizabeth Berg
You are born into your family and your family is born into you. No returns. No exchanges.
