[first lines]
Mary:
My name is Mary Lennox. I was born in India. It was hot, and strange, and lonely in India. I didn't like it. Nobody by my servant, my ayah, looked after me. My parents didn't want me. My mother cared only to go to parties. And my father was busy with his military duties. I was never allowed to go to the parties. I watched them from my mother's bedroom window. I was angry, but I never cried. I didn't know how to cry.

Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones  - Quotes

 
[Cliegg Lars is telling Anakin about what happened to Shmi]
Cliegg Lars:
It was just before dawn. They came out of nowhere. A hunting party of Tusken Raiders. Your mother had gone out early, like she always did, to pick mushrooms that grow on the vaporators. From the tracks, she was about halfway home when they took her. Those Tuskens walk like men, but they're vicious, mindless monsters. Thirty of us went out after her. Four of us came back. I'd be with them, only... after I lost my leg I just couldn't ride any more... until I heal. I don't want to give up on her, but she's been gone a month. There's little hope she's lasted this long. [Anakin gets up from the table]
Owen Lars:
Where are you going?
Anakin:
To find my mother.
Cliegg Lars:
Your mother's dead, son. Accept it.

Sling Blade  - Quotes

 Frank:
You ever have any brothers or sisters growing up?
Karl Childers:
I had one there for a little while. But, uh, it didn't get old enough for me to play with it.
Frank:
Why not? It die?
Karl Childers:
Yes, Sir.
Frank:
Why?
Karl Childers:
It got born too early. My mother and father made it come out too early some how or other.
Frank:
So it died when it came out?
Karl Childers:
My daddy came out to the shed and got me. He said, "Here, take this and throw it away", and he handed me a towel with something or another in it. Well I started for that barrel and I opened up the towel 'cause there was a noise. Something a-moving around in there. The towel was all bloody-like all around it there. It was a lil' ol' baby not no bigger than a squirrel.
Frank:
A girl or a boy?
Karl Childers:
It was a little ol' boy.
Frank:
You threw it in the trash barrel?
Karl Childers:
Well that didn't seem right to me, so I went in the shed and got me a shoe box and emptied out all the washers and nuts and screws and whatnot that were in it and I takened the little fellar and put him inside the box and buried him right there in a corner of the yard. That seemed more proper to me, I reckon.
Frank:
Was it still alive when you buried it?
Karl Childers:
I heared it a-cryin' through that box.
Frank:
That don't seem right. Seems like you would have kept him and taken care of him if he was your brother.
Karl Childers:
I wasn't but 6 or 8. I don't reckon I knew what to do. I didn't know how to care for no baby. My mother and father didn't want him and they learned me to do what they told me. These days I reckon it's better to give him back to the Good Lord anyhow.

Boris Pasternak  - Quotes

 Everything had changed suddenly-the tone, the moral climate; you didn't know what to think, who to listen to. As if all your life you had been led by the hand like a small child and suddenly you were on your own, you had to learn to walk by yourself. There was no one around, neither family nor people whose judgment you respected. At such a time you felt the need of committing yourself to something absolute-life or truth or beauty-of being ruled by it in place of the man-made rules that had been discarded. You needed to surrender to some such ultimate purpose more fully, more unreservedly than you had ever done in the old familiar, peaceful days, in the old life that was now abolished and gone for good.

 It was Sunday, and Mumma had gone next door with Lena and the little ones.

 What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery? (Just to give you an idea, Proust's reply was 'To be separated from Mama.') I think that the lowest depth of misery ought to be distinguished from the highest pitch of anguish. In the lower depths come enforced idleness, sexual boredom, and/or impotence. At the highest pitch, the death of a friend or even the fear of the death of a child.
