Domestic Treble

Famous quotes containing the words domestic and/or treble:

    I have no hesitation in saying that although the American woman never leaves her domestic sphere and is in some respects very dependent within it, nowhere does she enjoy a higher station. And ... if anyone asks me what I think the chief cause of the extraordinary prosperity and growing power of this nation, I should answer that it is due to the superiority of their women.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    Hortensio. Madam, my instrument’s in tune.
    Bianca. Let’s hear. O fie, the treble jars.
    Lucentio. Spit in the hole, man, and tune again.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
