Taylor

Famous quotes containing the word taylor:

    Ah! from the soul itself must issue forth
    A light, a glory, a fair luminous cloud
    Enveloping the Earth.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    It was palpable, all that wanting: Mother wanting something more, Dad wanting something more, everyone wanting something more. This wasn’t going to do for us fifties girls; we were going to have to change the equation even if it meant . . . abstaining from motherhood, because clearly that was where Mother got caught.
    —Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)

    Rights! There are no rights whatever without corresponding duties. Look at the history of the growth of our constitution, and you will see that our ancestors never upon any occasion stated, as a ground for claiming any of their privileges, an abstract right inherent in themselves; you will nowhere in our parliamentary records find the miserable sophism of the Rights of Man.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
