Bath Quote by Sheila Kohler
““The bath is one of the places I prefer, certainly not a place I leave readily, a place where one can close the door and remove oneself, put oneself in parentheses, as it were, from the rest of humanity. It is a place for reading and thinking, where one's mind wanders easily, where time seems temporarily suspended.””

![“I'm pretty low-maintenance, but I like my time to myself, and once you have a child, you have to fight for it. I remember the first long bath I took [after Ptolemy's birth] was such a moment. Because a lot of the time you're in the shower, and if that baby cries, you've got to turn off the water…” quote by Gretchen Mol](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/19e/gretchen-mol-25679_baby_i-m-pretty-low-maintenance-but-i-like-my_479162.jpg)
