More From Lady Bird Johnson

And she loved a man who was made out of nothing. a few hours without him and right away she’d be missing him with her whole body, sitting in her office surrounded by polyethylene and concrete and thinking of him. and every time she’d boil water for coffee in her ground-floor office, she’d let the steam cover her face, imagining it was him stroking her cheeks, her eyelids and she’d wait for the day to be over, so she could go to her apartment building, climb the flight of stairs, turn the key in the door, and find him waiting for her, naked and still between the sheets of her empty bed.
Coffee Missing Him Men
Husbands are not christ. but they are called to be like him. and the specific point of likeness is the husband's readiness to suffer for his wife's good without threatening or abusing her. this includes suffering to protect her from any outside forces that would harm her, as well as suffering disappointments of abuses even from her. this kind of love is possible because christ died for both husband and wife. their sins are forgiven. neither needs to make the other suffer for sins. christ has borne that suffering. now as two sinful and forgiven people we can return good for evil.
Disappointment Husband Love Is
A woman is never so happy as when she is being wooed. then she is mistress of all she surveys, the cynosure of all eyes, until that day of days when she sails down the aisle, a vision in white, lovely as the stefanotis she carries, borne translucent on her father's manly arm to be handed over to her new father-surrogate. if she is clever, and if her husband has the time and the resources, she will insist on being wooed all her life; more likely she will discover that marriage is not romantic, that husbands forget birthdays and aniversaries and seldom pay compliments, are often perfunctory.
Marriage Clever Husband
What hillary clinton is known for is the bimbo eruptions unit. what she is known for - and the reason that she has been nominated - is that she saved her husband and thus saved the democrat party by agreeing to defend her husband and go after the women, and not just the women. she went after the entire conservative movement and blamed us for what her husband was doing! it was "the vast right-wing conspiracy."
Husband Party Conservative
Eventually she came. she appeared suddenly, exactly like she'd done that day- she stepped into the sunshine, she jumped, she laughed and threw her head back, so her long ponytail nearly grazed the waistband of her jeans. after that, i couldn't think about anything else. the mole on the inside of her right elbow, like a dark blot of ink. the way she ripped her nails to shreds when she was nervous. her eyes, deep as a promise. her stomach, pale and soft and gorgeous, and the tiny dark cavity of her belly button. i nearly went crazy.
Crazy Eye Sunshine
For a mother the project of raising a boy is the most fulfilling project she can hope for. she can watch him, as a child, play the games she was not allowed to play; she can invest in him her ideas, aspirations, ambitions, and values - or whatever she has left of them; she can watch her son, who came from her flesh and whose life was sustained by her work and devotion, embody her in the world. so while the project of raising a boy is fraught with ambivalence and leads inevitably to bitterness, it is the only project that allows a woman to be - to be through her son, to live through her son.

I always thought it would be funny to have the parents television council write an episode of 'family guy' and give them full creative control. then see how good the episode is. that's something we've actually discussed in the writers' room. we haven't proposed it yet, but if somebody from the ptc reads this, it might be worth discussing.
