Weird Man

Famous quotes containing the words weird and/or man:

    Pregnant women! They had that weird frisson, an aura of magic that combined awkwardly with an earthy sense of duty. Mundane, because they were nothing unique on the suburban streets; ethereal because their attention was ever somewhere else. Whatever you said was trivial. And they had that preciousness which they imposed wherever they went, compelling attention, constantly reminding you that they carried the future inside, its contours already drawn, but veiled, private, an inner secret.
    Ruth Morgan (1920–1978)

    Work is a sovereign remedy for all ills, and a man who loves to work will never be unhappy.
    Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
