Squeezed

Famous quotes containing the word squeezed:

    “Tonight,
    I must go to that lucky man
    and in the blinding dark.”
    Thinking that,
    a respectable woman,
    eyes squeezed shut,
    practices walking in her house.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    Modern women are squeezed between the devil and the deep blue sea, and there are no lifeboats out there in the form of public policies designed to help these women combine their roles as mothers and as workers.
    Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)
