Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or yards:
“Wed like to fight but we fear defeat,
Wed like to work but were feeling too weak,
Wed like to be sick but wed get the sack,
Wed like to behave, wed like to believe,
Wed like to love, but weve lost the knack.”
—Cecil Day Lewis (19041972)
“The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the familys survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Houseworkcleaning, feeding, and caringis unimportant.”
—Debbie Taylor (20th century)
