Collins/companies

Famous quotes containing the words collins and/or companies:

    Though taste, though genius bless
    To some divine excess,
    Faint’s the cold work till thou inspire the whole;
    What each, what all supply,
    May court, may charm our eye,
    Thou, only thou, canst raise the meeting soul!
    —William Collins (1721–1759)

    In the U.S. for instance, the value of a homemaker’s productive work has been imputed mostly when she was maimed or killed and insurance companies and/or the courts had to calculate the amount to pay her family in damages. Even at that, the rates were mostly pink collar and the big number was attributed to the husband’s pain and suffering.
    Gloria Steinem (20th century)
