More quotes by Mary C. Ames
Most people carry an ideal man and woman in their head, and when the practical relations of the men and women of every day are discussed with reference only to these impossible ideals, we need not marvel at any ridiculous conclusions.
Mary C. Ames
To serve thy generation, this thy fate: Written in water, swiftly fades thy name But he who loves his kind does, first and late, A work too late for fame.
Mary C. Ames
A shining isle in a stormy sea, We seek it ever with smiles and sighs To-day is sad. In the bland To-be, Serene and lovely To-morrow lies.
