Convenience Sake

Famous quotes containing the words convenience and/or sake:

“... instead of being a help meet to man, in the highest, noblest sense of the term, as a companion, a co-worker, an equal; she has been a mere appendage of his being, an instrument of his convenience and pleasure, the pretty toy with which he wiled [sic] away his leisure moments, or the pet animal whom he humored into playfulness and submission.”
—Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)

“There is nothing about which I am more anxious than my country, and for its sake I am willing to die ten deaths, if that be possible.”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
