Famous quotes containing the words march and/or perkins:

    The march interrupted the light afternoon.
    Cars stopped dead, children began to run,
    As out of the street-shadow into the sun
    Discipline strode....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Architecture might be more sportive and varied if every man built his own house, but it would not be the art and science that we have made it; and while every woman prepares food for her own family, cooking can never rise beyond the level of the amateur’s work.
    —Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)
