Women Lawyers

Famous quotes containing the words women and/or lawyers:

    And, oh God, in my misspent youth as a housewife, I, too, used to bake bread, in those hectic and desolating days just prior to the woman’s movement, when middle-class women were supposed to be wonderful wives and mothers, gracious hostesses.... I used to feel so womanly when I was baking my filthy bread.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    Shuffled between caring and disgrace
    I took up all our closet space.
    What luxury we first checked into,
    to growl like lawyers until I threw
    my diamonds and cash upon the floor.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
