Died Young

Famous quotes containing the words died and/or young:

    Honour came to me,
    though I sought it not;
    I died at mid-day, sleeping;
    They did not see the reach of purple-wing
    that lifted me out of the little room.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Just as the archetype of the supermom—the woman who can do it all—minimizes the real needs of women, so too the archetype of the “superkid” minimizes the real needs of children. It makes it all right to treat a young child as if he or she were older.
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
