Expendable/influence

Famous quotes containing the words expendable and/or influence:

    Statistics justify and scholars seize
    The salients of colonial policy.
    What is that to the white child hacked in bed?
    To savages, expendable as Jews?
    Derek Walcott (b. 1930)

    Cultural expectations shade and color the images that parents- to-be form. The baby product ads, showing a woman serenely holding her child, looking blissfully and mysteriously contented, or the television parents, wisely and humorously solving problems, influence parents-to-be.
    Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
