Moore Haven

Famous quotes containing the words moore and/or haven:

    What is there

    like fortitude! What sap
    went through that little thread
    to make the cherry red!
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.
    Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
