Major Glory

Famous quotes containing the words major and/or glory:

“Let’s just call what happened in the eighties the reclamation of motherhood . . . by women I knew and loved, hard-driving women with major careers who were after not just babies per se or motherhood per se, but after a reconciliation with their memories of their own mothers. So having a baby wasn’t just having a baby. It became a major healing.”
—Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)

“I was taught that the human brain was the crowning glory of evolution so far, but I think it’s a very poor scheme for survival.”
