Sitting Room

Famous quotes containing the words sitting and/or room:

    There is no chance and anarchy in the universe. All is system and gradation. Every god is there sitting in his sphere.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Virginity is now a mere preamble or waiting room to be got out of as soon as possible; it is without significance. Old age is similarly a waiting room, where you go after life’s over and wait for cancer or a stroke. The years before and after the menstrual years are vestigial: the only meaningful condition left to women is that of fruitfulness.
    Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
