Famous quotes containing the words sick and/or brother:

“How can you describe her?
When your gaze falls
on one of her parts,
like a sick cow fallen
in mud,
it cannot escape.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

“All my life long I have been sensible of the injustice constantly done to women. Since I have had to fight the world single-handed, there has not been one day I have not smarted under the wrongs I have had to bear, because I was not only a woman, but a woman doing a man’s work, without any man, husband, son, brother or friend, to stand at my side, and to see some semblance of justice done me. I cannot forget, for injustice is a sixth sense, and rouses all the others.”
—Amelia E. Barr (1831–1919)
