Simone Elkeles Quote

All I wanted in this world was to be a mom.You regret it? I ask.Being a mom? Never. Seducing your father and making sure he didn’t use a condom, yes.I don’t want to hear this.Well, I’m gonna tell it to you whether you want to hear it or not. Be careful, Alex.I am.She takes another drag of her cigarette while shaking her head. No, you don’t get it. You might be careful, but girls won’t be. Girls are manipulative. I should know, I’m one of them.Brittany is--The kind of girl who can make you do things you don’t want to do.Believe me, Mom. She doesn’t want a kid.No, but she’ll want other things. Things you can never give her.I look up at the stars, the moon, the universe that I know doesn’t end. But what if I want to give them to her?
