Home Side

Famous quotes containing the words home and/or side:

“Men are all right for friends, but as soon as you marry them they turn into cranky old fathers, even the wild ones. They begin to tell you what’s sensible and what’s foolish, and want you to stick at home all the time. I prefer to be foolish when I feel like it, and be accountable to nobody.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)

“The very notion of tabu is one of the rightest notions in the world. Better any old tabu than none, for a man cannot be said to be “on the side of the stars” at all, unless he makes refusals.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
