I want to go to there ...

"Also, I encourage them (young women asking for career advice) to always wear a bra. Even if you don't think you need it, just ... you know what? 
You're never going to regret it."

and 

"And should she choose to be a Mother one day, be my eyes, Lord, That I may see her, lying on a blanket on the floor at 4:50 a.m., all-at-once exhausted, bored, and in love with the little creature whose poop is leaking up its back. 'My mother did this for me once,' she will realize as she cleans feces off her baby's neck. 'My mother did this for me.' And the delayed gratitude will wash over her as it does each generation and she will make a Mental Note to call me. And she will forget. 
But I'll know, because I peeped it with Your God eyes."

Bossypants by Tina Fey

Wonderful. This was the first thing I saw this morning when I logged into my computer! Loved, loved, loved this book.
