Famous quotes containing the words nature and/or trail:
“So Nature deals with us, and takes away
Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
Leads us to rest so gently, that we go
Scarce knowing if we wish to go or stay,
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the what we
know.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18091882)

Coming of age before or during the inception of the womens movement, whether as working parents or homemakers, whether married or divorced, our mothers faced conundrumswhat should they be? how should they act?that became our uncertainties.”
—Anne Roiphe (20th century)
