Rooney Married

Famous quotes containing the words rooney and/or married:

    But off with your hat and three times three for Columbia’s
    true-blue sons,
    The men below who batter the foe—the men behind the guns!
    —John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)

    Most of us don’t have mothers who blazed a trail for us—at least, not all the way. Coming of age before or during the inception of the women’s movement, whether as working parents or homemakers, whether married or divorced, our mothers faced conundrums—what should they be? how should they act?—that became our uncertainties.
    Anne Roiphe (20th century)
