Famous quotes containing the words castle and/or bar:

    Let me be at the place of the castle.
    Let the castle be within me.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    The bar is the male kingdom. For centuries it was the bastion of male privilege, the gathering place for men away from their women, a place where men could go to freely indulge in The Bull Session ... the release of the guilty anxiety of the oppressor class.
    Shulamith Firestone (b. 1945)
