Menopause/background

Famous quotes containing the words menopause and/or background:

    One hand stiff—heaviness of forties & menopause reduced
    by one heart stroke, lame now—wrinkles—a scar on
    her head, the lobotomy—ruin, the hand dipping downwards to
    death—
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    I had many problems in my conduct of the office being contrasted with President Kennedy’s conduct in the office, with my manner of dealing with things and his manner, with my accent and his accent, with my background and his background. He was a great public hero, and anything I did that someone didn’t approve of, they would always feel that President Kennedy wouldn’t have done that.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
