Caught Carrying

Famous quotes containing the words caught and/or carrying:

    Who can ... guess how much industry and providence and affection we have caught from the pantomime of brutes?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The steps toward the emancipation of women are first intellectual, then industrial, lastly legal and political. Great strides in the first two of these stages already have been made of millions of women who do not yet perceive that it is surely carrying them towards the last.
