Famous quotes containing the words life, political and/or career:
“Thou art a toilsome mole, or less,

A quickness which my God hath kissed.”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
