Brother David

Famous quotes containing the words brother and/or david:

    Before I knew that I was Jewish or a girl I knew that I was a member of the working class. At a time when I had not yet grasped the significance of the fact that in my house English was a second language, or that I wore dresses while my brother wore pants, I knew—and I knew it was important to know—that Papa worked hard all day long.
    Vivian Gornick (b. 1935)

    I trust that some may be as near and dear to Buddha, or Christ, or Swedenborg, who are without the pale of their churches.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
