Human Male

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or male:

    Loyalty to petrified opinions never yet broke a chain or freed a human soul in this world—and never will.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Raising a daughter is an extremely political act in this culture. Mothers have been placed in a no-win situation with their daughters: if they teach their daughters simply how to get along in a world that has been shaped by men and male desires, then they betray their daughters’ potential But, if they do not, they leave their daughters adrift in a hostile world without survival strategies.
    Elizabeth Debold (20th century)
