Famous quotes containing the words papers, daniel and/or gilman:

    All the familiar horrors we
    Associate with others
    Are coming fast along our way:
    The wind is warning in our tree
    And morning papers still betray
    The shrieking of the mothers.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    When winter snows upon thy sable hairs,
    And frost of age hath nipped thy beauties near;
    When dark shall seem thy day that never clears,
    And all lies withered that was held so dear,
    Then take this picture which I here present thee,
    Limned with a pencil not all unworthy;
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    The labor of women in the house, certainly, enables men to produce more wealth than they otherwise could; and in this way women are economic factors in society. But so are horses.
    —Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)
