Famous quotes containing the words david and/or marshall:

    I have seen more men than usual, lately; and, well as I was acquainted with one, I am surprised to find what vulgar fellows they are.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Work is a responsibility most adults assume, a burden at times, a complication, but also a challenge that, like children, requires enormous energy and that holds the potential for qualitative, as well as quantitative, rewards. Isn’t this the only constructive perspective for women who have no choice but to work? And isn’t it a more healthy attitude for women writhing with guilt because they choose to compound the challenges of motherhood with work they enjoy?
    —Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
