Waters Explained

Famous quotes containing the words waters and/or explained:

    Where the Moosatockmaguntic
    Pours its waters in the Skuntic,
    Met, along the forest side
    Hiram Hover, Huldah Hyde.
    She, a maiden fair and dapper,
    He, a red-haired, stalwart trapper,
    Hunting beaver, mink, and skunk
    In the woodlands of Squeedunk.
    Bayard Taylor (1825–1878)

    It was heady stuff, recognizing ourselves as an oppressed class, but the level of discussion was poor. We explained systemic discrimination, and men looked prettily confused and said: “But, I like women.”
    Jane O’Reilly, U.S. feminist and humorist. The Girl I Left Behind, ch. 2 (1980)
