Famous quotes containing the words valued and/or form:
“Even the hatred
in a man
who’s valued for his learning
is desirable,
but I’m shamed
by even love
in a person
who’s reviled by others.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
“In America every woman has her set of girl-friends; some are cousins, the rest are gained at school. These form a permanent committee who sit on each other’s affairs, who “come out” together, marry and divorce together, and who end as those groups of bustling, heartless well-informed club-women who govern society. Against them the Couple of Ehepaar is helpless and Man in their eyes but a biological interlude.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
