Famous quotes containing the words day, saint and/or movement:

    “I don’t know what it is about fecundity that so appalls. I suppose it is the teeming evidence that birth and growth, which we value, are ubiquitous and blind, that life itself is so astonishingly cheap, that nature is as careless as it is bountiful, and that with extravagance goes a crushing waste that will one day include our own cheap lives.”
    —Annie Dillard (b. 1945)

    “A saint addicted to excessive self-abnegation is a dangerous associate; he may infect you with poverty, and a stiffening of those joints which are needed for advancement—in a word, with more renunciation than you care for—and so you flee the contagion.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “The American suffrage movement has been, until very recently, altogether a parlor affair, absolutely detached from the economic needs of the people.”
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
