Famous quotes containing the words roles, original, london and/or cast:

    A concern with parenting...must direct attention beyond behavior. This is because parenting is not simply a set of behaviors, but participation in an interpersonal, diffuse, affective relationship. Parenting is an eminently psychological role in a way that many other roles and activities are not.
    Nancy Chodorow (20th century)

    There is no original truth, only original error.
    Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)

    London ... remains a man’s city where New York is chiefly a woman’s. London has whole streets that cater to men’s wants. It has its great solid phalanx of fortress clubs.
    Louis Kronenberger (1904–1980)

    People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned.
    James Baldwin (1924–1987)
