Famous quotes containing the words meyer and/or shapiro:

    God protect us from the efficient, go-getter businesswoman whose feminine instincts have been completely sterilized. Wherever women are functioning, whether in the home or in a job, they must remember that their chief function as women is a capacity for warm, understanding and charitable human relationships.
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    But with exquisite breathing you smile, with satisfaction of love,
    And I touch you again as you tick in the silence and settle in
    sleep.
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
