Famous quotes containing the words carroll and/or myth:

    “They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care;
    They pursued it with forks and hope;
    They threatened its life with a railway-share
    They charmed it with smiles and soap.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “... if, as women, we accept a philosophy of history that asserts that women are by definition assimilated into the male universal, that we can understand our past through a male lens—if we are unaware that women even have a history—we live our lives similarly unanchored, drifting in response to a veering wind of myth and bias.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
