Famous quotes containing the words kay and/or thompson:

    The naive notion that a mother naturally acquires the complex skills of childrearing simply because she has given birth now seems as absurd to me as enrolling in a nine-month class in composition and imagining that at the end of the course you are now prepared to begin writing War and Peace.
    —Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)

    They smote and fell, who set the bars

    And stayed the march of Motherland!
    —Will Henry Thompson (1848–1918)
