We were all inside our mothers’ bodies once. We were all infants once, and then our mothers were huge. We suckled milk from their breasts. We don’t remember any of it, but our motor-sensory, emotional-perceptual learning begins long before our conscious memories. It begins even before birth, and we are shaped by it…” Siri Hustvedt, A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women

Swaddle, soothe, succour, scream.
