Admission and Status

Famous quotes containing the words admission and/or status:

    “A completely indifferent attitude toward clothes in women seems to me to be an admission of inferiority, of perverseness, or of a lack of realization of her place in the world as a woman. Or—what is even more hopeless and pathetic—it’s an admission that she has given up, that she is beaten, and refuses longer to stand up to the world.”
    —Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

    “As a work of art it has the same status as a long conversation between two not very bright drunks.”
    —Clive James (b. 1939)
