Famous quotes containing the words absorbed and/or town:
“Realistic about how much one person can accomplish in a given day, women expect to have to make some trade-offs between work and family. Families, however, have absorbed all the stress and strain they possibly can. The entire responsibility for accommodation is taking place on the home side of the equation.”

“The town is silent. The night boils with eleven stars.
Oh starry starry night! This is how
I want to die.”
