“It's my greatest success. Women did not vote in Italy until 1946. A good friend and I put together a group of women to protest this. I was very young, just a girl. We went to the Viminale [home of the Ministry of the Interior] and spoke to the chair of the ministry board. Thanks to our initiative, we got the bureaucracy rolling on giving women the right to vote. I have to thank my father for this. He was in Geneva at the League of Nations, and women voted there. He thought it was absurd that women didn't vote in his country yet.” GivingCountryHomeTogetherYoungGirlFatherNationsGroupsVoteAbsurdThanksLeagueBoardsChairsProtestSpokesInitiativeMinistryRollingGood FriendBureaucracyInteriorsRight To VoteGenevaGreatest SuccessJust A GirlLeague Of Nations Author:Giovanna Cau
“When the warrior returns, from the battle afar,To the home and the country he nobly defended,O! warm be the welcome to gladden his ear,And loud be the joy that his perils are ended:In the full tide of song let his fame roll along,To the feast-flowing board let us gratefully throng,Where, mixed with the olive, the laurel shall wave,And form a bright wreath for the brows of the brave.” CountryHomeFormJoySongReturnBattleFameEarsBraveWaveWarmWelcomeWarriorLoudBoardsTidesPerilBrowsAfarOlivesLaurelsWreaths Book:Poems of the late Francis S.

“One of the leading causes of divorce is sexual incompatibility. Why not mandate premarital sex, overseen, of course, by the Marriage Board to ensure that it was carried out and completed as required? The final exam question could be: "Was it good for you two?" For good measure, the engaged couple should be required to work together on a home improvement project like installing a kitchen sink or finishing a basement. That's the ultimate test of a marital relationship.” ShouldTwoHomeTogetherCoursesSexCausesCoupleProjectsTestsUltimateFinalsDivorceImprovementBoardsEngagedKitchenWorking TogetherWhy NotFinishingMandatesBasementsExamIncompatibilityLeading CausesKitchen SinksHome ImprovementFinal Exams Author:Mike Rosen
“It's one thing to be sitting at a drawing board, alone in your home and coming up with a fantasy character, and drawing her whichever way you feel like drawing, then dealing with a real performer. All of a sudden, things change. It's amazing, in working with actors, how much I learn from them and how many new lines will come to mind because of their personality or their strengths.” WayFeelsMindRealCharacterHomeActorsLinesFantasyOne ThingPersonalitySittingDrawingBoardsPerformersThings Change Author:Frank Miller
“My home kitchen is airy, with a gas stove, a stainless-steel island table in the center and granite countertops. It's very modest but there's tons of counter space, so you can slap down three or four cutting boards.” HomeThreeSpaceFourCuttingTablesBoardsIslandsKitchenGasModestSteelSlapStovesAiryGranite Author:Grant Achatz
