Famous quotes containing the words stage and/or designs:

    Once a child has demonstrated his capacity for independent functioning in any area, his lapses into dependent behavior, even though temporary, make the mother feel that she is being taken advantage of....What only yesterday was a description of the child’s stage in life has become an indictment, a judgment.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    His designs were strictly honourable, as the phrase is; that is, to rob a lady of her fortune by way of marriage.
    Henry Fielding (1707–1754)
