Famous quotes containing the words princess and/or victoria:

    “My generation had Doris Day as a role model, then Gloria Steinem—then Princess Diana. We are the most confused generation.”
    —Erica Jong (b. 1942)

    “Sometimes my wife complains that she’s overwhelmed with work and just can’t take one of the kids, for example, to a piano lesson. I’ll offer to do it for her, and then she’ll say, “No, I’ll do it.” We have to negotiate how much I trespass into that mother role—it’s not given up easily.”
    —Anonymous Father. As quoted in Women and Their Fathers, by Victoria Secunda, ch. 3 (1992)
