Famous quotes containing the word stories:

    “No record ... can ... name the women of talent who were so submerged by child- bearing and its duties, and by “general housework,” that they had to leave their poems and stories all unwritten.”
    —Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    “We live in a highly industrialized society and every member of the Black nation must be as academically and technologically developed as possible. To wage a revolution, we need competent teachers, doctors, nurses, electronics experts, chemists, biologists, physicists, political scientists, and so on and so forth. Black women sitting at home reading bedtime stories to their children are just not going to make it.”
    —Frances Beale, African American feminist and civil rights activist. The Black Woman, ch. 14 (1970)

    “I tell it stories now and then
    and feed it images like honey.
    I will not speculate today
    with poems that think they’re money.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
