We need to teach our children to be cautious without imparting fear, to learn right from wrong without being judgmental, to be assertive but not pushy, to stick to routines without sacrificing spontaneity, and to be determined but not stubborn.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“Man is a question; woman is an answer. The mistake women make today is to offer themselves as answers before being questioned.”
—José Bergamín (1895–1983)
