Grand Cross Collar

Famous quotes containing the words grand, cross and/or collar:

    A garden has this advantage, that it makes it indifferent where you live. A well-laid garden makes the face of the country of no account; let that be low or high, grand or mean, you have made a beautiful abode worthy of man.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I’d take off all my clothes
    & cross the damp cold lawn & down the bluff
    into the terrible water & walk forever
    under it out toward the island.
    John Berryman (1914–1972)

    In the U.S. for instance, the value of a homemaker’s productive work has been imputed mostly when she was maimed or killed and insurance companies and/or the courts had to calculate the amount to pay her family in damages. Even at that, the rates were mostly pink collar and the big number was attributed to the husband’s pain and suffering.
    Gloria Steinem (20th century)
