David Sedaris Quote
The child opened her beak even wider, and the stork let out a moan. It really wouldn’t hurt you to take an interest in others, she said. I tell you I’m depressed, I tell you I feel cornered and lonely, and your response is ‘Fine. Now feed me,’ which is actually very insensitive of you. All mothers feel unconditional love for their children, but there’s a timer on it, all right. It doesn’t last forever, especially when you’re selfish.The child closed her beak.
