Alexandra: Sometimes I think nothing I do ever suits you. Don’t I ever do anything right? (To her critical, southern husband)
Meagan: I can’t believe you married a senator. You have two beautiful children. You live in such a wonderful house.
Alexandra: My wonderful house is more like a shrine to Henry’s parents. He was born there. In the fourteen years I’ve lived there, he hasn’t even allowed me to change a lamp shade. Don’t get me started on all that.
Alexandra: You know what I remember is not so much what happened, it’s more, it’s like the color of things, not the things themselves. Till now.
Alexandra: You know, when Emily was about three months old, she looked at me, I mean really looked at me. And I realized that even though she came from my body, she wasn’t a part of me. I saw her separateness. There was somebody inside this tiny little infant. It completely changed the way I thought about raising children.
Meagan: How so?
Alexandra: From the beginning, we are who we are. Hopefully we have parents who can help us get better at it.
Alexandra: It reminds me of a kaleidoscope I gave Mary-Louise, last year for her birthday. You turn it a fraction and the same pieces fall into completely different patterns. One moment they’re flowers, the next they’re demons breathing fire.

SAM:don’t say that.
MUM: DID YOU THINK I WOULD LET YOU HUMILIATE ME FOREVER. YOU THINK I WOULD FORGIVE AND FORGIVE.didn’t it ever occur to you that finally i would care for someone else, for comfort, for love. I’m leaving you because i’m in love with someone else.
SAM:What do you mean. Well who is it.
