Famous quotes containing the words rockefeller and/or worked:

    Maybe this is like the Old Testament. It was visited upon us and maybe we’re going to benefit from it.
    —Nelson A. Rockefeller (1908–1979)

    Tailor’s work—the finishing of men’s outside garments—was the “trade” learned most frequently by women in [the 1820s and 1830s], and one or more of my older sisters worked at it; I think it must have been at home, for I somehow or somewhere got the idea, while I was a small child, that the chief end of woman was to make clothing for mankind.
    Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)
