Famous quotes containing the words political and/or activities:

    Although military, economic and political strength certainly favors the more powerful side, the matter of simple justice is a counterbalancing factor.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
