Famous quotes containing the words participation in, scientific and/or societies:
“Americans have internalized the value that mothers of young children should be mothers first and foremost, and not paid workers. The result is that a substantial amount of confusion, ambivalence, guilt, and anxiety is experienced by working mothers. Our cultural expectations of mother and realities of female participation in the labor force are directly contradictory.”
—Ruth E. Zambrana, U.S. researcher, M. Hurst, and R.L. Hite. The Working Mother in Contemporary Perspectives: A Review of Literature, Pediatrics (December 1979)
“Bad times have a scientific value. These are occasions a good learner would not miss.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“The history of all previous societies has been the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (18181883)
