Famous quotes containing the words james, taylor, high and/or school:

    ‘Intellectualism’ is the belief that our mind comes upon a world complete in itself, and has the duty of ascertaining its contents; but has no power of re-determining its character, for that is already given.
    —William James (1842–1910)

    An orphan’s curse would drag to hell
    A spirit from on high;
    But oh! more horrible than that
    Is a curse in a dead man’s eye!
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Sleep is when all the unsorted stuff comes flying out as from a dustbin upset in a high wind.
    William Golding (b. 1911)

    The happiest two-job marriages I saw during my research were ones in which men and women shared the housework and parenting. What couples called good communication often meant that they were good at saying thanks to one another for small aspects of taking care of the family. Making it to the school play, helping a child read, cooking dinner in good spirit, remembering the grocery list,... these were silver and gold of the marital exchange.
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
