Famous quotes containing the word ladder:

    “Take motherhood: nobody ever thought of putting it on a moral pedestal until some brash feminists pointed out, about a century ago, that the pay is lousy and the career ladder nonexistent.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    “A funny business, a woman’s career. The things you drop on your way up the ladder so you can move faster. You forget you’ll need them again when you get back to being a woman.”
    —Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)

    “The only difference between a man and woman climbing the ladder of success is that a woman is expected to put it in the closet when she’s finished with it.”
    —Barbara Dale (b. 1940)
