Famous quotes containing the words kate and/or richards:

    O slanderous world! Kate like the hazel twig
    Is straight and slender, and as brown in hue
    As hazelnuts, and sweeter than the kernels.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    ...some sort of false logic has crept into our schools, for the people whom I have seen doing housework or cooking know nothing of botany or chemistry, and the people who know botany and chemistry do not cook or sweep. The conclusion seems to be, if one knows chemistry she must not cook or do housework.
    —Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
