Domestic Trunk Routes

Famous quotes containing the words domestic, trunk and/or routes:

    ... feminism is a political term and it must be recognized as such: it is political in women’s terms. What are these terms? Essentially it means making connections: between personal power and economic power, between domestic oppression and labor exploitation, between plants and chemicals, feelings and theories; it means making connections between our inside worlds and the outside world.
    Anica Vesel Mander, U.S. author and feminist, and Anne Kent Rush (b. 1945)

    That trunk of humors, that bolting-hutch of beastliness, that
    swollen parcel of dropsies, that huge bombard of sack, that
    stuffed cloak-bag of guts, that roasted Manningtree ox with
    the pudding in his belly.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.
    Terri Apter (20th century)
