Home Rulers

Famous quotes containing the words home and/or rulers:

    “Contrary to all we hear about women and their empty-nest problem, it may be fathers more often than mothers who are pained by the children’s imminent or actual departure—fathers who want to hold back the clock, to keep the children in the home for just a little longer. Repeatedly women compare their own relief to their husband’s distress”
    —Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)

    “The rulers of the earth are all worth knowing; they suggest moral reflections: and the respect that one naturally has for God’s vice-regents here on earth is greatly increased by acquaintance with them.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
