Famous quotes containing the words adam and/or wylie:

    Had Adam tenderly reproved his wife, and endeavored to lead her to repentance instead of sharing in her guilt, I should be much more ready to accord to man that superiority which he claims; but as the facts stand disclosed by the sacred historian, it appears to me that to say the least, there was as much weakness exhibited by Adam as by Eve. They both fell from innocence, and consequently from happiness, but not from equality.
    Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)

    When strawberries go begging, and the sleek
    Blue plums lie open to the blackbird’s beak,
    We shall live well—we shall live very well.
    —Elinor Wylie (1885–1928)
