Daughter Mother Betrayed

More From Philippa Gregory

...fact was she knew more about them than she knew about herself, having never had the map to discover what she was like. could she sing? (was it nice to hear when she did?) was she pretty? was she a good friend? could she have been a loving mother? a faithful wife? have i got a sister and does she favor me? if my mother knew me would she like me?

Mother Nice Good Friend
Every mother contains her daughter in herself and every daughter her mother and every mother extends backwards into her mother and forwards into her daughter.
Daughter Mother Backwards
So she had to satisfy herself with the idea of love - loving the loving of things whose existence she didn't care at all about. love itself became the object of her love. she loved herself in love, she loved loving love, as love loves loving, and was able, in that way, to reconcile herself with a world that fell so short of what she would have hoped for. it was not the world that was the great and saving lie, but her willingness to make it beautiful and fair, to live a once-removed life, in a world once-removed from the one in which everyone else seemed to exist.
Love Beautiful Lying
As a teenage daughter hears her sweet mother plead unto the lord that her daughter will be inspired in the selection of her companions, that she will prepare herself for a temple marriage, don't you believe that such a daughter will seek to honor this humble, pleading petition of her mother, whom she so dearly loves?
Daughter Mother Sweet
Iago: she that was ever fair and never proud, had tongue at will and yet was never loud, never lack'd gold and yet went never gay, fled from her wish and yet said 'now i may,' she that being anger'd, her revenge being nigh, bade her wrong stay and her displeasure fly, she that in wisdom never was so frail to change the cod's head for the salmon's tail; she that could think and ne'er disclose her mind, see suitors following and not look behind, she was a wight, if ever such wight were,-- desdemona: to do what? iago: to suckle fools and chronicle small beer.
Revenge Beer Gay
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.

The idea that it's smart to allow wall street firms, with this "too big to fail" imprimatur, to become hedge funds again - it's unconscionable. you're essentially saying we're going to take some elites in our society and let them roll the bones in the marketplace, and if it works out they get rich, and if it doesn't work out the taxpayer comes in again. that seems absolutely crazy to me. that seems to be where they're headed. i mean, maybe they're not and i'm wrong. maybe they'll do sensible things. it's hard to know! there doesn't seem to be a plan.
