Famous quotes containing the words boston, music and/or journalism:

    The ideal of men and women sharing equally in parenting and working is a vision still. What would it be like if women and men were less different from each other, if our worlds were not so foreign? A male friend who shares daily parenting told me that he knows at his very core what his wife’s loving for their daughter feels like, and that this knowing creates a stronger bond between them.
    —Anonymous Mother. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 6 (1978)

    Through music the passions enjoy themselves.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    In America the President reigns for four years, and Journalism governs for ever and ever.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
