Famous quotes containing the words profession and/or autonomy:
“My profession lent itself nicely to my vocation for heights. It freed me of any bitterness towards my fellow men, who were always in my debt, without my owing them anything. It placed me above the judge whom, I in turn judged, above the defendant whom I forced into gratitude.”
—Albert Camus (19131960)
“Im tired of earning my own living, paying my own bills, raising my own child. Im tired of the sound of my own voice crying out in the wilderness, raving on about equality and justice and a new social order.... Self-sufficiency is exhausting. Autonomy is lonely. Its so hard to be a feminist if you are a woman.”
—Jane OReilly, U.S. feminist and humorist. The Girl I Left Behind, ch. 7 (1980)
