We're free!

"We're living in a free country, aren't we? Aren't you allowed to walk any way you like?" Astrid Lindgren

An admirable profession

"I enjoy doing housework, ironing, washing, cooking, dishwashing. Whenever I get one of those questionaires and they ask what is your profession, I always put down housewife. It's an admiral profession, why apologize for it. You aren't stupid because you're a housewife. When you're stirring the jam you can read Shakespeare."

Tasha Tudor

Oh, the pleasures of reading!

"The person, be it a gentleman or a lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid."

Jane Austen
