Double Summer Time

Famous quotes containing the words double, summer and/or time:

    “I grew up confidently expecting to have a profession and earn my own living, and also confidently expecting to be married and have children. It was fifty-fifty with me. I was just as passionately determined to have children as I was to have a career. And my mother was the triumphant answer to all doubts as to the success of this double role. From my earliest memory she had more than half supported the family and yet she was supremely a mother.”
    —Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    “The restlessness that comes upon girls upon summer evenings results in lasting trouble unless it is speedily controlled. The right kind of man does not look for a wife on the streets, and the right kind of girl waits till the man comes to her home for her.”
    —Sedalia Times (1900)

    “Every time a man unburdens his heart to a stranger he reaffirms the love that unites humanity.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
