Jane Parker Huber

Famous quotes containing the words jane, parker and/or huber:

    If the veil were withdrawn from the sanctuary of domestic life, and man could look upon the fear, the loathing, the detestations which his tyranny and reckless gratification of self has caused to take the place of confiding love, which placed a woman in his power, he would shudder at the hideous wrong of the present regulations of the domestic abode.
    —Lydia Jane Pierson, U.S. women’s rights activist and corresponding editor of The Woman’s Advocate. The Woman’s Advocate, represented in The Lily, pp. 117-8 (1855-1858 or 1860)

    I can’t talk about Hollywood. It was a horror to me when I was there and it’s a horror to look back on. I can’t imagine how I did it. When I got away from it I couldn’t even refer to the place by name. “Out there,” I called it.
    —Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    Christ has called us to new visions
    Here to celebrate and praise,
    Here confess our old divisions,
    Here our peace petitions raise.
    Come repentant, come forgiving,
    Come in joy and hope and prayer.
    Christ, once crucified, now living,
    Bids us faith and love to share.
    —Jane Parker Huber (b. 1926)
