Famous quotes containing the word barrett:

    The works of women are symbolical.
    We sew, sew, prick our fingers, dull our sight,
    Producing what? A pair of slippers, sir,
    To put on when you’re weary or a stool
    To stumble over and vex you ... “curse that stool!”
    Or else at best, a cushion, where you lean
    And sleep, and dream of something we are not,
    But would be for your sake. Alas, alas!
    This hurts most, this ... that, after all, we are paid
    The worth of our work, perhaps.
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

    Eve is a twofold mystery.
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

    What monster have we here?
    A great Deed at this hour of day?
    A great just Deed—and not for pay?
    Absurd,—or insincere.
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
