Famous quotes containing the words lake, hamilton and/or catherine:
“What a wilderness walk for a man to take alone! None of your half-mile swamps, none of your mile-wide woods merely, as on the skirts of our towns, without hotels, only a dark mountain or a lake for guide-board and station, over ground much of it impassable in summer!”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
““Last night there was four Maries,
The night there’ll be but three;
There was Marie Seton, and Marie Beton,
And Marie Carmichael, and me.””
—Unknown. Mary Hamilton (l. 69–72)
“The caretaking has to be done. “Somebody’s got to be the mommy.” Individually, we underestimate this need, and as a society we make inadequate provision for it. Women take up the slack, making the need invisible as we step in to fill it.”
—Mary Catherine Bateson (20th century)
