Effective Fields

Famous quotes containing the words effective and/or fields:

“Society’s double behavioral standard for women and for men is, in fact, a more effective deterrent than economic discrimination because it is more insidious, less tangible. Economic disadvantages involve ascertainable amounts, but the very nature of societal value judgments makes them harder to define, their effects harder to relate.”
—Anne Tucker (b. 1945)

“Mantled in grey, the dusk steals slowly in,
Crossing the dead, dull fields with footsteps cold.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
