Days

Famous quotes containing the word days:

    Oh, talk not to me of a name great in story—
    The days of our youth are the days of our glory;
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    ... the spiritual world is here and now and indisputably and preeminently real. It is the material world that is the realm of shadows.
    Amelia E. Barr, U.S. novelist. All the Days of My Life, ch. 1 (1913)

    Back in the days when men were hunters and chestbeaters and women spent their whole lives worrying about pregnancy or dying in childbirth, they often had to be taken against their will. Men complained that women were cold, unresponsive, frigid.... They wanted their women wanton. They wanted their women wild. Now women were finally learning to be wanton and wild—and what happened? The men wilted.
    Erica Jong (b. 1942)
