Famous quotes containing the word hardy:

    It appears that ordinary men take wives because possession is not possible without marriage, and that ordinary women accept husbands because marriage is not possible without possession; with totally differing aims the method is the same on both sides.
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
