Amour, love, the dream of man,
Woman's deep devoted plan.
Amour

Amor means no hungry child,
Begging, hair blowing wild.

Searching amongst the rats and mice,
Left-over food, contaminated rice.
Eyes, the saddest soul sight,
Hidden is the child's plight.
Bleeding feet, glass cut bare,
Dirty rags for a child to wear.
Clambering through the bin,
Society's senseless sin.

Amor, love save this child's life,
Poverty is the nefarious knife,
A child of poverty and strife,
Deserves amour, love of life.

Maureen Brindle from Beloved Isles
[Inspired by H.H. Princess Maria Amor We Care for Humanity] ~ Maureen Brindle
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Brindle
It was fine," I said stiffly. "We played Mouse Trap." "Is that what they're calling it these days?" she asked, throwing me a terrible grin. "I have to go give Rachel a quick bath. Feel free to make yourself some cocoa or whatever you like!" She stopped short of adding " ... future child-bride of my only son. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
Don't get stabbed. It makes everything awkward. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
I have often caught sight of myself, my spine humped over, defining my hollowness, my head too heavy for my body, swinging like the oversized blossom of some cruelly bred plant; admiration for the world spread for the world to see on my gullible face-unlike my other face with the sour look of a starved peasant. ~ Maureen Howard
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Howard
Well, we spent enough on gymnastics.'
'Christ, did we,' said Maureen. 'So many lessons.'
So many lessons, it was true: art and music and ice-skating; Lily's every fleeting interest enthusiastically, abundantly indulged. Not to mention the many more practical investments
chemistry tutoring when she struggled, English enrichment when she excelled, SAT courses to propel her to the school and then, presumably, the career of her dreams. What costs had been sunk, what objections had been suppressed, to deliver their daughter into the open and waiting arms of her beautiful life. ~ Jennifer DuBois
Maureen Brindle quotes by Jennifer DuBois
It just seemed like telling the truth would mean admitting some weakness ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
These houses had been plunked down with an alarming randomness
unevenly spaced, on crooked lines, like whoever had designed the place had said, We'll just follow this cat, and wherever he sits down, we'll build something. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
There is a danger in the repudiation of the feminine when the daughter who rejects the aspects of the negative feminine embodied by her mother also denies positive aspects of her own feminine nature, which are playful, sensuous, passionate, nurturing, intuitive, and creative. Many women who have had angry or emotional mothers seek to control their own anger and feelings lest they be seen as destructive and castrating. This repression of anger often prevents them from seeing the inequities in a male-defined system. Women who have seen their mothers as superstitious, religious, or old-fashioned discard the murky, mysterious, magical aspects of the feminine for cool logic and analysis. A chasm is created between the heroine and the maternal qualities within her; this chasm will have to be healed later in the journey for her to achieve wholeness. ~ Maureen Murdock
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Murdock
I miss you so much it's giving me a pain in my pancreas. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
I began to rationalize marrying Will[iam Houston Price]. 'He comes from a good family. A girl could do worse.' (As it turned out, I couldn't, but I didn't know that yet ~ Maureen O'Hara
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen O'Hara
Every day my love for you grows higher, deeper, wider, stronger ... It grows and grows until it touches the tip of where you are and comes back to me in the loving memory of you, and my heart melts with that love and grows even more. ~ Maureen Hunter
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Hunter
Don't follow someone into the dark, Stevie. I've seen it happen too many times. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
Comedy is quite difficult, you have to be able to have fun and portray that sense of fun to the audience watching you. ~ Maureen O'Hara
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen O'Hara
To be part of the creation, I must act humbly. I'll take that over a goddess any day! ~ Maureen O'Hara
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen O'Hara
I believe sex is a life force and I try to write about it as straightforwardly as I can. I try to let characters live within their desires and addictions, because most people are works in progress. ~ Maureen Gibbon
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Gibbon
Mothering had come so naturally to Maureen. It was as if another woman had been waiting inside her all along, ready to slip out. She knew how to swing her body so that a baby slept; how to soften her voice; how to curl her hand to support his head. She knew what temperature the water should be in his bath, and when he needed to nap, and how to knit him blue wool socks. He had no idea she knew these things and he had watched with awe, like a spectator from the shadows. It both deepened his love for her and lifted her apart, so that just at the moment when he thought their marriage would intensify, it seemed to lose its way, or at least set them in different places. ~ Rachel Joyce
Maureen Brindle quotes by Rachel Joyce
Something in the room had changed. My hand was on the floor, next to Stephen, but he wasn't as close to my hand as he had been. He had moved several inches over, toward the table. Just as I realized this, his arm shot out for the knife. In the next moment, he had rolled up on his knees and had Sadie caught in the crook of his arm. His face was pale, and he looked a bit shaken by the sudden movement. He was alive. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
The hand that rested on my shoulder rubbed it a bit, comfortingly. Then it gave my shoulder a little squeeze. I leaned into him.

Maybe it was that I was broken. Maybe it was just that I was out of my mind. But it occurred to me that I was going to kiss him. The thought just arrived, certain knowledge, delivered from some greater, more knowledgeable place. I was going to kiss him. Stephen would not want to kiss me. He would back up in horror. And yet, I was still going to do it. I reached over, and put my hand against his chest, then I moved closer. I could feel just the very tips of the gentle stubble on his cheek brushing against my skin.

"Rory," he said. But it was a quiet protest, and it went nowhere.

For the first few seconds, he didn't move-he accepted the kiss like you might accept a spoonful of medicine. Then I heard it, a sigh, like he had finally set down a heavy weight.

I was pretty sure we were both kind of terrified, but I was completely sure that we were both doing this. We kissed slowly, very deliberately, coming together and then pulling apart and looking at each other. Then each kiss got longer, and then it didn't stop. Stephen put his hand just under the edge of my shirt, holding it on the spot where the scar was. Sometimes the skin around the scar got cold-now it was warm. Now it was alive.

"So Thorpe says that-Seriously?"

Callum was in the doorway.

Stephen mumbled what I think was ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
You've never been to another planet, have you Aimee?"
"No, but I've been to Disney World. ~ Maureen A. Miller
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen A. Miller
It seemed to me he was well rid of Maureen, if she really was disturbing him to the extent that it appeared; but being judicious about other people's love affairs is easy, often merely a sign one has not understood their force or complexity. ~ Anthony Powell
Maureen Brindle quotes by Anthony Powell
I wrote Beyond The Label to open up the aperture through which we look at the world. I want us to reconsider what it means to be a woman, a mentor, a wife, a mother. ~ Maureen Chiquet
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Chiquet
How could you get angry with Jackie Gleason? ~ Maureen O'Hara
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen O'Hara
'Harry Potter' achieved a very special act of actual magic: it made it completely acceptable for an adult to carry around, read and enjoy a children's book. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
There is nothing about a bad situation that fourteen hyper cheerleaders can't worsen. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
It takes a lot of adrenaline and fear to make me actually write. ~ Maureen Dowd
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Dowd
Its not the size of the rise that satisfies, it's the throb of the knob that does the job. ~ Brindle Chase
Maureen Brindle quotes by Brindle Chase
Some mules just seem to be born with the hee-haw habit. Back home we call those fellows 'Missouri Nightingales'. ~ Maureen Daly
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Daly
Sisters The Leaving ~ Maureen Lee
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Lee
I look upon the gift of my life as a wondrous journey. ~ Maureen Brady
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Brady
In our lifetime those who kill the newsworld hands them stardom and these are the ways on which I was raised. - Morrissey, The Last of the Famous International Playboys ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
It's everyone's dream... Come to Ellingham Academy, move a ramp out of a hole in the dark. - Nate ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
Constant reading pulled me away from the world of my childhood, the world of my parents. ~ Maureen Corrigan
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Corrigan
The pain of love is the pain of being alive. It is a perpetual wound. ~ Maureen Duffy
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Duffy
We hold these stories and mad idea and events in our head and they run around and around telling us we are different, separate, broken.
Then one day the mad idea escapes the asylum. Most times it's unplanned. It just tumbles out on the lap of the man sitting next to us on the bus, or it slips sideways into a conversation on line at the Trader Joe's or it falls out at the kitchen table when your neighbor comes to pick up her cat.
And there is a terrifying moment when it first hits the light of day, where we think, "holy mother of God! What have I done? How could I have been to casual with my crazy ways?"
But the man on the bus just smiles and nods his head, and the casher takes a moment to look us in the eye and the neighbor sits for a cup of tea and together we move into some new agreements that we are all in fact crazy and it's so much nicer to be out of the closet with it all. ~ Maureen Muldoon
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Muldoon
Salt. Wound. Together at last. ~ Maureen Johnson
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Johnson
Who knows? If women all end up with the same face and body, men may gravitate toward the quirky. Then the chicks with the laugh lines and love handles will be the lucky ones. ~ Maureen Dowd
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Dowd
I've discovered over the years that if my hair is all right, then generally speaking, so am I. ~ Maureen Lipman
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Lipman
A girl can't feel like a lady with a bottle of beer before her. ~ Maureen Daly
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Daly
Hebrew Confederate Cemetery on Shockoe Hill, which is the only Jewish military cemetery in the world outside the state of Israel. The ~ Maureen Egan
Maureen Brindle quotes by Maureen Egan
People might be dismissive of someone obsessed with mystery stories, as if the line between fiction and reality was so distinct. They didn't know, perhaps, that Sherlock Holmes was based on a real man, Dr. Joseph Bell, and that the methods Arthur Conan Doyle created for his fictional detective inspired generations of real-world detectives. Did they know that Arthur Conan Doyle went on to investigate mysteries in his real life and even absolved a man of a crime for which he had been convicted? Did they know how Agatha Christie brilliantly staged her own disappearance in order to exact an elegant revenge on a cheating husband? ~ Maureen Johnson, Truly Devious
