Famous quotes containing the words dean and/or hamer:

    Psychobabble is ... a set of repetitive verbal formalities that kills off the very spontaneity, candor, and understanding it pretends to promote. It’s an idiom that reduces psychological insight to a collection of standardized observations, that provides a frozen lexicon to deal with an infinite variety of problems.
    —Richard Dean Rosen (b. 1949)

    It’s time for America to get right.
    —Fannie Lou Hamer (1917–1977)
