Six books… my mother didn’t want books falling into my hands. It never occurred to her that I fell into the books – that I put myself inside them for safe keeping.
Controlling mothers do not pass the baton to their son's new wife.
Mothers are the only ones that think nothing is beyond their control when it comes to their children.
I had a mother that told me what to do all my life, and I traded that in for a wife. We got married two years out of high school which is not what you tell your kids to do, right?
when the time came I would do battle with my mother for the right to sit at the center of my own life.
My mother was top billing in our house.
I never let anyone pluck, including myself, unless my mom approves. She guards my eyebrows. She's like the eyebrow police!
I get to wear Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen and crazy stuff, but of course, my mom would never in a million years let me buy that. She won't even let me buy my own pair of skis!
