Happy Hooker

Famous quotes containing the words happy and/or hooker:

    To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.
    Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    He that goeth about to persuade a multitude that they are not so well governed as they ought to be shall never want attentive and favourable hearers.
    —Richard Hooker (1554–1600)
