White Rose Society

Famous quotes containing the words white, rose and/or society:

    I’ve often wondered why she laughed
    On thinking why I wondered so;
    It seemed such waste that long white hands
    Should touch my hands and let them go.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    The rose is a rose,
    And was always a rose.
    But the theory now goes
    That the apple’s a rose,
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.
    Debbie Taylor (20th century)
