Famous quotes containing the words edward and/or taylor:

    To be a poor man is hard, but to be a poor race in a land of dollars is the very bottom of hardships.
    —W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)

    That, of course, was the thing about the fifties with all their patina of familial bliss: A lot of the memories were not happy, not mine, not my friends’. That’s probably why the myth so endures, because of the dissonance in our lives between what actually went on at home and what went on up there on those TV screens where we were allegedly seeing ourselves reflected back.
    —Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)
