Famous quotes containing the words married, life and/or family:

    There was an old party of Lyme
    Who married three wives at one time.
    Edward Lear (1812–1888)

    Not less are summer-mornings dear
    To every child they wake,
    And each with novel life his sphere
    Fills for his proper sake.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Views of women, on one side, as inwardly directed toward home and family and notions of men, on the other, as outwardly striving toward fame and fortune have resounded throughout literature and in the texts of history, biology, and psychology until they seem uncontestable. Such dichotomous views defy the complexities of individuals and stifle the potential for people to reveal different dimensions of themselves in various settings.
    Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
