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

    Sitting along the bed’s edge, where
    You curled the papers from your hair,
    Or clasped the yellow soles of feet
    In the palms of both soiled hands.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    A Daniel come to judgment! yea, a Daniel!
    O wise young judge, how I do honor thee!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The fact that women in the home have shut themselves away from the thought and life of the world has done much to retard progress. We fill the world with the children of 20th century A.D. fathers and 20th century B.C. mothers.
    —Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)
