Famous quotes containing the words double and/or room:
“Was it the double of my dream
The woman that by me lay

Under the first cold gleam of day?”

“Virginity is now a mere preamble or waiting room to be got out of as soon as possible; it is without significance. Old age is similarly a waiting room, where you go after lifes over and wait for cancer or a stroke. The years before and after the menstrual years are vestigial: the only meaningful condition left to women is that of fruitfulness.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
