Writing back to Morrison

"Nor were they from that sensitive breed of young girl, gone wrong at the hands of fate, forced to cultivate an outward brittleness in order to protect her springtime from further shock, but knowing full well she was cut out for better things, and could make the right man happy." (pg 55-56)

This quote caught my eye and seemed very poetic. Also, telling a story. A story about the prostitutes. This line is very sensitive as well has could have many meanings. The prostitutes knew they could've done better, be a better person. Certain circumstances caused them to take a different path. Maybe this is what the prostitutes think in their heads. Like, maybe I could have done better. Do something greater with my life. But this line could also relate to the readers. Sometimes you know you can be better at something, do something greater than usual. Sometimes we choose to take the easy way out. In the long run we realize we should have achieved for greater, we are capable of much more. We always minimize ourselves and this quote makes you realize that you shouldn't.
