Robinson Released

Famous quotes containing the words robinson and/or released:

    He set the jug down slowly at his feet
    With trembling care, knowing that most things break;
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    Women are to be lifted up to a physical equality with man by placing upon their shoulders equal burdens of labor, equal responsibilities of state-craft; they are to be brought down from their altruistic heights by being released from all obligations of purity, loyalty, self-sacrifice, and made free of the world of passion and self-indulgence, after the model set them by men of low and materialistic ideals.
    Caroline Fairfield Corbin (b. c. 1835–?)
