    “She isn’t harassed. She’s busy, and it’s glamorous to be busy. Indeed, the image of the on- the-go working mother is very like the glamorous image of the busy top executive. The scarcity of the working mother’s time seems like the scarcity of the top executive’s time.... The analogy between the busy working mother and the busy top executive obscures the wage gap between them at work, and their different amounts of backstage support at home.”
    —Arlie Hochschild (20th century)

    “When you give power to an executive you do not know who will be filling that position when the time of crisis comes.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
