Famous quotes containing the words mar, early and/or earls:

    “The mother as a social servant instead of a home servant will not lack in true mother duty.... From her work, loved and honored though it is, she will return to her home life, the child life, with an eager, ceaseless pleasure, cleansed of all the fret and fraction and weariness that so mar it now.”
    —Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)

    “Parents ... are sometimes a bit of a disappointment to their children. They don’t fulfil the promise of their early years.”
    —Anthony Powell (b. 1905)

    “If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)
