Famous quotes containing the words clean and/or days:
“Perhaps the fact that I am not a Radical or a believer in the all powerful ballot for women to right her wrongs and that I do not scorn womanly duties, but claim it as a privilege to clean up and sort of supervise the room and sew things, etc., is winning me stronger allies than anything else.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
“Men have made out, that only they can run the world. It’s in about as bad a state as it well can be, but they are proud of their work.”
—Ann Oddy, U.S. housekeeper. As quoted in All the Days of My Life, ch. 2 (1913)
