Keeping

Famous quotes containing the word keeping:

    The chance is the remotest
    Of its going much longer unnoticed
    That I’m not keeping pace
    With the headlong human race.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Most parents of adolescent girls have the goal of keeping their daughters safe while they grow up and explore the world. The parents’ job is to protect, the daughter’s job is to explore.
    Mary Pipher (20th century)

    I have been searching history to see if really a woman has any precedent to claim the right to have her rights, and I am compelled to say that we men are not so much ahead of women after all, and the only way we have kept our reputation up is by keeping her down—and don’t you forget it!
    George E. Foster, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Woman’s Magazine, pp. 38-41 (October 1886)
