Famous quotes containing the words legal status, legal, status and/or mission:

    “In the course of the actual attainment of selfish ends—an attainment conditioned in this way by universality—there is formed a system of complete interdependence, wherein the livelihood, happiness, and legal status of one man is interwoven with the livelihood, happiness, and rights of all. On this system, individual happiness, etc. depend, and only in this connected system are they actualized and secured.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “Narrative prose is a legal wife, while drama is a posturing, boisterous, cheeky and wearisome mistress.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “Recent studies that have investigated maternal satisfaction have found this to be a better prediction of mother-child interaction than work status alone. More important for the overall quality of interaction with their children than simply whether the mother works or not, these studies suggest, is how satisfied the mother is with her role as worker or homemaker. Satisfied women are consistently more warm, involved, playful, stimulating and effective with their children than unsatisfied women.”
    —Alison Clarke-Stewart (20th century)

    “The mission of men there seems to be, like so many busy demons, to drive the forest all out of the country, from every solitary beaver swamp and mountain-side, as soon as possible.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
