Famous quotes containing the words summer and/or training:
“I swear,
I most solemnly swear, on all the bric-à-brac
of summer loves, I know
you not.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“I’m not suggesting that all men are beautiful, vulnerable boys, but we all started out that way. What happened to us? How did we become monsters of feminist nightmares? The answer, of course, is that we underwent a careful and deliberate process of gender training, sometimes brutal, always dehumanizing, cutting away large chunks of ourselves. Little girls went through something similarly crippling. If the gender training was successful, we each ended up being half a person.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
