Famous quotes containing the words economics and/or practice:

    Women’s battle for financial equality has barely been joined, much less won. Society still traditionally assigns to woman the role of money-handler rather than money-maker, and our assigned specialty is far more likely to be home economics than financial economics.
    Paula Nelson (b. 1945)

    Like the British Constitution, she owes her success in practice to her inconsistencies in principle.
