“All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does, and that is his.”
(Oscar Wilde: The Importance of Being Earnest)
I have inherited my mother's, and her mother's, tendency to worry too
much, suffer sudden indecisiveness and occasionally fall into despair.
Also their heartfelt smile, thick hair, curiosity, love of the English language, loyalty and soft-spoken independence.
