Famous quotes containing the words rare and/or double:

    “I know some of my self-worth comes from tennis, and it’s hard to think of doing something else where you know you’ll never be the best. Tennis players are rare creatures: where else in the world can you know that you’re the best? The definitiveness of it is the beauty of it, but it’s not all there is to life and I’m ready to explore the alternatives.”
    —Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)

    “To be a woman and a writer
    is double mischief, for
    the world will slight her
    who slights “the servile house,” and who would rather
    make odes than beds.”
    —Dilys Laing (1906–1960)
