ORIGINAL MOONS Book

"My English class was reading Oedipus Rex, and I
spelled it, 'W-R-E-C-K-S' in my notebook. I'll never forget
that; I didn't want to get caught like that again! Actually,
it's a very good memory; it always makes me realize that
people have to learn things; we aren't born with all this
knowledge."
Margaret Baker
"I guess this whole thing I'm talking to you about is
independence and how hard it is to get. . . Yes, I think
independence is a goal to strive for, really from our first
breath and maybe to our last."
Sherien Jaeger
"We knew from the time we were born we would be
going to college and make something of our lives. It
wasn't a question - we knew that. And we knew also
that we would have to work hard to do it."
Jo Anna Frost
"My grandmother had whispered to me the day before the
wedding, 'Have you heard about that new pill?' ...She
was a brilliant woman and worked hard at learning
about new things. 'You know, [she said] I've been doing
a little research about that pill, I think that is the best
thing a man ever invented.'"
