Famous quotes containing the words foot and/or fall:
“We found ourselves always torn between the mothers in our heads and the women we needed to become simply to stay alive.With one foot in the past and another in the future, we hobbled through first love, motherhood, marriage, divorce, careers, menopause, widowhood—never knowing what or who we were supposed to be, staking out new emotional territory at every turn—like pioneers.”
—Erica Jong (20th century)
“Some men are so full of themselves that when they fall in love, they amuse themselves rather with their own passion than with the person they love.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
