High Interest

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or interest:

    Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in
    their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.
    Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet,
    with other delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel.
    How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle!
    Jonathan, thou wast slain in thine high places.
    Bible: Hebrew Second Samuel (l. I, 23–25)

    ... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average “Woman’s Page” of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of “high society.” Women’s interests to-day are as wide as the world.
    Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)
