Famous quotes containing the words women and/or died:
“The city is always recruited from the country. The men in cities who are the centres of energy, the driving-wheels of trade, politics or practical arts, and the women of beauty and genius, are the children or grandchildren of farmers, and are spending the energies which their fathers’ hardy, silent life accumulated in frosty furrows in poverty, necessity and darkness.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“God is indeed dead.
He died of self-horror
when He saw the creature He had made
in His own image.”
—Irving Layton (b. 1912)
