Hour Days

Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or days:

    There’s nought but care on ev’ry han’,
    In ev’ry hour that passes, O:
    What signifies the life o’ man,
    An’ ‘twere na for the lasses, O.
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    Most days I feel like an acrobat high above a crowd out of which my own parents, my in-laws, potential employers, phantoms of “other women who do it” and a thousand faceless eyes stare up.
    —Anonymous Mother. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)
