Famous quotes containing the words program and/or data:

    “Since the last one in a graveyard is believed to be the next one fated to die, funerals often end in a mad scramble.”
    —Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “Mental health data from the 1950’s on middle-aged women showed them to be a particularly distressed group, vulnerable to depression and feelings of uselessness. This isn’t surprising. If society tells you that your main role is to be attractive to men and you are getting crow’s feet, and to be a mother to children and yours are leaving home, no wonder you are distressed.”
    —Grace Baruch (20th century)
