"I think of myself as a child of war. How could I not? Having spent the first five years of my life dodging bombs, running to shelters in the middle of the night, or sitting for hours in a dark hall with pillows over my head wondering what the noise, the flashes of light outside and the breaking glass would do to me . . . I would look at Mama's face when all was in turmoil. It was my barometer for danger. I do not ever remember seeing her cry. In all those years, she must surely have wept many times! But I never witnessed a single tear. She knew her girls were looking at her when things were bad, and that our fragile little ship of childhood depended on a safe and steady anchor." - Theresia M. Quigley
