Famous quotes containing the words peasant and/or attacks:

    “The lord is the peasant that was,
    The peasant is the lord that shall be.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “We are seeing an increasing level of attacks on the “selfishness” of women. There are allegations that all kinds of social ills, from runaway children to the neglected elderly, are due to the fact that women have left their “rightful” place in the home. Such arguments are simplistic and wrongheaded but women are especially vulnerable to the accusation that if society has problems, it’s because women aren’t nurturing enough.”
    —Grace Baruch (20th century)
