Mittens/history

Famous quotes containing the words mittens and/or history:

    Three little kittens
    They lost their mittens,
    And they began to cry,
    Oh, mother dear,
    We sadly fear
    Our mittens we have lost.
    What! lost your mittens,
    You naughty kittens!
    Then you shall have no pie.
    Eliza Lee Follen (1787–1860)

    No matter how vital experience might be while you lived it, no sooner was it ended and dead than it became as lifeless as the piles of dry dust in a school history book.
    Ellen Glasgow (1874–1945)
