Latin Rite

Famous quotes containing the words latin and/or rite:

“Status quo, you know, that is Latin for “the mess we’re in.””
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)

“A woman can get marries and her life does change. And a man can get married and his life changes. But nothing changes life as dramatically as having a child. . . . In this country, it is a particular experience, a rite of passage, if you will, that is unsupported for the most part, and rather ignored. Somebody will send you a couple of presents for the baby, but people do not acknowledge the massive experience to the parents involved.”
—Dana Raphael (20th century)
