Famous quotes containing the words selected, works and/or english:

    There is no reason why parents who work hard at a job to support a family, who nurture children during the hours at home, and who have searched for and selected the best [daycare] arrangement possible for their children need to feel anxious and guilty.

    Edmund Burke (1729–97)

    Middlemarch, the magnificent book which with all its imperfections is one of the few English novels for grown-up people.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
