Famous quotes containing the words chisholm and/or worked:

    Great is your faithfulness, O God, Creator,
    with you no shadow of turning we see.
    You do not change, your compassions they fail not;
    all of your goodness forever will be.
    —Thomas O. Chisholm (1866–1960)

    Tailor’s work—the finishing of men’s outside garments—was the “trade” learned most frequently by women in [the 1820s and 1830s], and one or more of my older sisters worked at it; I think it must have been at home, for I somehow or somewhere got the idea, while I was a small child, that the chief end of woman was to make clothing for mankind.
    Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)
