Entering

Famous quotes containing the word entering:

    At the end of one millennium and nine centuries of Christianity, it remains an unshakable assumption of the law in all Christian countries and of the moral judgment of Christians everywhere that if a man and a woman, entering a room together, close the door behind them, the man will come out sadder and the woman wiser.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “... Farewell then,
    Until, under a better sky
    We may meet expended, for just doing it
    Is only an excuse. We need the tether
    Of entering each other’s lives, eyes wide apart, crying.”
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    I’ve been asked to give some words of advice for young women entering library/information science education. Does anyone ever take advice? The advice we give is usually what we would do or would have done if we had the chance, and the advice that’s taken, if ever, is often what we wanted to hear in the first place.
    Phyllis Dain (b. 1930)
