Famous quotes containing the word modern:

    “The modern woman is the curse of the universe. A disaster, that’s what. She thinks that before her arrival on the scene no woman ever did anything worthwhile before, no woman was ever liberated until her time, no woman really ever amounted to anything.”
    —Adela Rogers St. Johns (1894–1988)
