Famous quotes containing the words long and/or time:
“Women are in bondage; their clothes are a great hindrance to their engaging in any business which will make them pecuniarily independent, and since the soul of womanhood never can be queenly and noble so long as it must beg bread for its body, is it not better, even at the expense of a vast deal of annoyance, that they whose lives deserve respect and are greater than their garments should give an example by which woman may more easily work out her own emancipation?”
—Lucy Stone (1818–1893)
“Life is difficult for those who have the daring to first set out on an unknown road. The avant-garde always has a bad time of it.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
