Active Vocabulary

Famous quotes containing the words active and/or vocabulary:

“Women have acquired equal place to man in society, but the double standard has really never been relinquished; certainly not by men. Modern man’s fear of passivity or of the active woman proves to be as eternal as modern woman’s struggle to come to terms with her femininity.”
—Peter Blos (20th century)

“One forgets words as one forgets names. One’s vocabulary needs constant fertilizing or it will die.”
