Famous quotes containing the words special and/or cars:

    The universal social pressure upon women to be all alike, and do all the same things, and to be content with identical restrictions, has resulted not only in terrible suffering in the lives of exceptional women, but also in the loss of unmeasured feminine values in special gifts. The Drama of the Woman of Genius has too often been a tragedy of misshapen and perverted power.
    Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    For I could not read or speak and on the long nights I could not turn the moon off or count the lights of cars across the ceiling.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
