Caused

Famous quotes containing the word caused:

    ... dealing with being a lesbian—and part of that is by being politically activist—has caused me to have a less carefree adolescence. But I don’t think that’s a bad thing. It has its rewards.
    Karina Luboff (b. 1974)

    ‘Oh the withy, the withy, the bitter withy
    That has caused me to smart,
    The withy shall be the very first tree
    Fort to perish all at the heart.’
    Unknown. The Bitter Withy (l. 31–34)

    If the veil were withdrawn from the sanctuary of domestic life, and man could look upon the fear, the loathing, the detestations which his tyranny and reckless gratification of self has caused to take the place of confiding love, which placed a woman in his power, he would shudder at the hideous wrong of the present regulations of the domestic abode.
    Lydia Jane Pierson, U.S. women’s rights activist and corresponding editor of The Woman’s Advocate. The Woman’s Advocate, represented in The Lily, pp. 117-8 (1855-1858 or 1860)
