Booker Prize Winning

Famous quotes containing the words prize and/or winning:

    To become a token woman—whether you win the Nobel Prize or merely get tenure at the cost of denying your sisters—is to become something less than a man ... since men are loyal at least to their own world-view, their laws of brotherhood and self-interest.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    She whom I love is hard to catch and conquer,
    Hard, but O the glory of the winning were she won!
    George Meredith (1828–1909)
