Women Wore Long

Famous quotes containing the words women, wore and/or long:

    The militancy of men, through all the centuries, has drenched the world with blood, and for these deeds of horror and destruction men have been rewarded with monuments, with great songs and epics. The militancy of women has harmed no human life save the lives of those who fought the battle of righteousness. Time alone will reveal what reward will be allotted to women.
    Emmeline Pankhurst (1858–1928)

    Once the good man was dead, one wore his hat and another his sword as he had worn them, a third had himself barbered as he had, a fourth walked as he did, but the honest man that he was—nobody any longer wanted to be that.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    The fact is the sweetest dream that labor knows.
    My long scythe whispered and left the hay to make.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
