Assumption Holds

Famous quotes containing the words assumption and/or holds:

    ... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average “Woman’s Page” of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of “high society.” Women’s interests to-day are as wide as the world.
    Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    thou mayst know,
    That flesh is but the glass, which holds the dust
    That measures all our time;
    George Herbert (1593–1633)
