Famous quotes containing the words karate and/or world:
“Since mothers are more likely to take children to their activitiesthe playground, ballet or karate class, birthday partiesthey get a chance to see other children in action.... Fathers usually dont spend as much time with other peoples kids; because of this, they have a narrower view of what constitutes normal behavior, and therefore what should or shouldnt require parental discipline.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“Woman is the future of man. That means that the world which was once formed in mans image will now be transformed to the image of woman. The more technical and mechanical, cold and metallic it becomes, the more it will need the kind of warmth that only the woman can give it. If we want to save the world, we must adapt to the woman, let ourselves be led by the woman, let ourselves be penetrated by the Ewigweiblich, the eternally feminine!”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
