James Norris Memorial

Famous quotes containing the words james, norris and/or memorial:

    It is not women’s fault if we are so tender. It is in the nature of the lives we live. And further, it would be a terrible catastrophe if men had to live men’s lives and women’s also. Which is precisely what has happened today—to women.
    —Selma James (b. 1930)

    We don’t need to connect. The prairie landscape isolates us from each other as well as from our history.
    —Kathleen Norris (b. 1947)

    When I received this [coronation] ring I solemnly bound myself in marriage to the realm; and it will be quite sufficient for the memorial of my name and for my glory, if, when I die, an inscription be engraved on a marble tomb, saying, “Here lieth Elizabeth, which reigned a virgin, and died a virgin.”
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
