Famous quotes containing the words penn and/or state:

    So little time we live in Time,
    And we learn all so painfully,
    That we may spare this hour’s term
    To practice for Eternity.
    —Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)

    Romance reading and writing might be seen ... as a collectively elaborated female ritual through which women explore the consequences of their common social condition as the appendages of men and attempt to imagine a more perfect state where all the needs they so intensely feel and accept as given would be adequately addressed.
    Janice A. Radway (b. 1949)
