Trades Day

Famous quotes containing the words trades and/or day:

    The strongest reason why we ask for woman a voice in the government under which she lives; in the religion she is asked to believe; equality in social life, where she is the chief factor; a place in the trades and professions, where she may earn her bread, is because of her birthright to self-sovereignty; because, as an individual, she must rely on herself.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    Elizabeth, frigidly stretched,
    On a spring day surprised us
    With her starched dignity and the quietness
    Of her hands clasping a black cross.
    Valentin Iremonger (b. 1918)
