Fixed Days

Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or days:

    Traditionally, marriage involved a kind of bartering, rather than mutual inter-dependence or role sharing. Husbands financially and economically supported wives, while wives emotionally, psychologically and socially supported husbands. He brought home the bacon, she cooked it. He fixed the plumbing, she the psyche.
    Bettina Arndt (20th century)

    There are days when the great are near us, when there is no frown on their brow, no condescension even; when they take us by the hand, and we share their thought.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
