Famous quotes containing the words daughters and, daughters and/or sons:

    How we dwelt in two worlds
    the daughters and the mothers
    in the kingdom of the sons.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    When sons grow up, they listen not to their fathers, nor do daughters to their mothers.
    Chinese proverb.

    With two sons born eighteen months apart, I operated mainly on automatic pilot through the ceaseless activity of their early childhood. I remember opening the refrigerator late one night and finding a roll of aluminum foil next to a pair of small red tennies. Certain that I was responsible for the refrigerated shoes, I quickly closed the door and ran upstairs to make sure I had put the babies in their cribs instead of the linen closet.
    Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
