Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or assumption:
“Swear me, Kate, like a lady as thou art,
A good mouth-filling oath.”

“... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average “Woman’s Page” of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of “high society.” Women’s interests to-day are as wide as the world.”
—Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)
