Famous quotes containing the words long and/or cross:
“In the long run, only woman remains true to mankinds foremost mission. Whatever she achieves, she achieves through herself, and alone. Mans master is thepublic.”

“Passion is here a soilure of the wits,
Were told, and Love a cross for them to bear;
Joy shivers in the corner where she knits
And Conscience always has the rocking-chair,
Cheerful as when she tortured into fits
The first cat that was ever killed by Care.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (18691935)
