START: All my children live at home, it’s so nice. Emily’s here, back from the rest home. And Joanie’s here because her marriage hasn’t worked out and somebody has to watch all those children for her while she’s working, poor thing.

[... ... ...]

END: Sometimes I’m afraid if I had to choose between having my children succeed in the world and live away from home, or having them fail and live at home, that I’d choose the latter. But luckily, I haven’t had to choose!

Durang, Christopher, The Marriage of Bette and Boo, Dramatists Play Service, 1985, p. 38.
