Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


"Not to the best man living," she proclaimed. "And there ain't no
call for it. There's too many people in the world now, else why
are there two or three men for every job? And, besides, havin'
children is too terrible."


Saxon, with a look of patient wisdom in her face that became
glorified as she spoke, made answer:


"I ought to know what it means. I've been through it, and I'm
still in the thick of it, and I want to say to you right now, out
of all the pain and the ache and the sorrow, that it is the most
beautiful, wonderful thing in the world."
