Famous quotes containing the word daughters:

    When the LORD your God brings you into the land that you are about to enter and occupy...and you defeat them, then you must utterly destroy them. Make no covenant with them and show them no mercy. Do not intermarry with them, giving your daughters to their sons or taking their daughters for your sons, for that would turn away your children from following me, to serve other gods.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 7:1-4.

    The daughters of delight now pump iron.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    For even daughters of the swan can share
    Something of every paddler’s heritage—
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
