Barnett

Famous quotes containing the word barnett:

    Shopping seemed to take an entirely too important place in women’s lives. You never saw men milling around in men’s departments. They made quick work of it. I used to wonder if shopping was a form of escape for women who had no worthwhile interests.
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    Women cannot claim the right to be considered mature and responsible until they decide the course of their lives for themselves and refuse to be a “manipulated group.” They will not be truly emancipated until ... the right to work is a matter of course and not of discussion.
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    The intelligent employer encourages challenge, questioning—not blind acceptance and “our Leader knows best” acclaim.
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
