Lying Quotes by Louise Glück

Louise Glück

As I saw it, all my mother’s life, my father held her down, like lead strapped to her ankles. She was buoyant by nature; she wanted to travel, go to the theater, go to museums. What he wanted was to lie on the couch with the Times over his face, so that death, when it came, wouldn’t seem a significant change.

He takes her in his arms He wants to say I love you, nothing can hurt you But he thinks this is a lie, so he says in the end You’re dead, nothing can hurt you which seems to him a more promising beginning, more true.
