Slave Girl

Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or girl:

    “There is between sleep and us something like a pact, a treaty with no secret clauses, and according to this convention it is agreed that, far from being a dangerous, bewitching force, sleep will become domesticated and serve as an instrument of our power to act. We surrender to sleep, but in the way that the master entrusts himself to the slave who serves him.”
    —Maurice Blanchot (b. 1907)

    “When women reach the age of maturity, Mother Nature sometimes overworks their frustration to the point of irrationalism. Like the middle-aged man...who finds himself looking longingly at a girl in her early twenties.”
    —Mark Hanna. Nathan Hertz. Dr. Von Loeb (Otto Waldis)
