If you ever become a mother, can I have one of the puppies?

Summary

This quote humorously illustrates how individuals often assume that they will benefit from another's responsibilities and hard work. While being a mother involves raising and taking care of children, the speaker jokes about wanting to effortlessly enjoy the benefits, such as having a puppy, without having to put in the effort or face the challenges that come with motherhood. It highlights the tendency of some people to seek personal gain without fully considering the implications or considering the effort required by others.

Midland City had a goddess of discord all its own. This was a goddess who could not dance, would not dance, and hated everybody at the high school. She would like to claw away her face, she told us, so that people would stop seeing things in it that had nothing to do with what she was like inside. She was ready to die at any time, she said, because what men and boys thought about her and tried to do to her made her so ashamed. One of the first things she was going to do when she got to heaven, she said, was to ask somebody what was written on her face and why had it been put there.
