Famous quotes containing the words anthony and/or lewis:

    I hope there will be no effort to put up a shaft or any monument of that sort in memory of me or of the other women who have given themselves to our work. The best kind of a memorial would be a school where girls could be taught everything useful that would help them to earn an honorable livelihood; where they could learn to do anything they were capable of, just as boys can. I would like to have lived to see such a school as that in every great city of the United States.
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    Move then with new desires,
    For where we used to build and love
    Is no man’s land, and only ghosts can live
    Between two fires.
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)
