Wishing Dust

Famous quotes containing the words wishing and/or dust:

    Instead of wishing to see more doctors made by women joining what there are, I wish to see as few doctors, either male or female, as possible. For, mark you, the women have made no improvement—they have only tried to be “men” and they have only succeeded in being third-rate men.
    Florence Nightingale (1820–1910)

    She had thought the studio would keep itself;
    no dust upon the furniture of love.
    Half heresy, to wish the taps less vocal,
    the panes relieved of grime.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
