Lost Sacred Feminine

Famous quotes containing the words lost, sacred and/or feminine:

    Men are more evanescent than pictures, yet one sorrows for lost friends, and pictures are my friends. I have none others. I am never long enough with men to attach myself to them; and whatever feelings of attachment I have are to material things.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    Whenever a mind is simple and receives an old wisdom, old things pass away,—means, teachers, texts, temples fall; it lives now, and absorbs past and future into present hour. All things are made sacred by relation to it,—one as much as another.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The feminine mystique has succeeded in burying millions of American women alive.
    Betty Friedan (b. 1921)
