Famous quotes containing the words swift and/or left:
“Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
What the swift mind beholds at every turn.”
—Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
“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)
