Famous quotes containing the words career and/or recognition:

    ““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    “No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
