Famous quotes containing the words men and/or earn:
““Who chooseth me shall gain what many men desire.”
What many men desire! That many may be meant
By the fool multitude that choose by show.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Certainly the effort to remain unchanged, young, when the body gives so impressive a signal of change as the menopause, is gallant; but it is a stupid, self-sacrificial gallantry, better befitting a boy of twenty than a woman of forty-five or fifty. Let the athletes die young and laurel-crowned. Let the soldiers earn the Purple Hearts. Let women die old, white-crowned, with human hearts.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
