Sixpence in Her Shoe Quotes

“Housewives more than any other race deserve well-furnished minds. They have to live in them such a lot of the time.”
― Phyllis McGinley, Sixpence in Her Shoe

“Wifehood, the house, a family they are woman's traditional concern and each in its way represents one of the other great three- faith, hope, charity - which St. Paul sets down as the virtues of earth. (For how can one rear a family without faith? Or build a roof without hope? Or remain a proper wife without charity?) They are life's most vital elements and no ordered world can endure without them.”
