Lisa See Quotes About Husband

• If it is perfectly acceptable for a widow to disfigure herself or commit suicide to save face for her husband's family, why should a mother not be moved to extreme action by the loss of a child or children? We are their caretakers. We love them. We nurse them when they are sick. . . But no woman should live longer than her children. It is against the law of nature. If she does, why wouldn't she wish to leap from a cliff, hang from a branch, or swallow lye?

• Sigo aprendiendo sobre el amor. Creía entenderlo, no sólo el amor materno, sino también el amor a los padres, al marido y al laotong. He experimentado otros tipos de amor: el amor compasivo, el amor respetuoso y el amor agradecido. Pero mirando nuestro abanico secreto con los mensajes escritos entre Flor de Nieve y yo a lo largo de muchos años, veo que no valoré el amor más importante: el amor profundo.

• Snow Flower was my old same for life. I had a greater and deeper love for her than I could ever feel for a person who was my husband.
