Granted Independence

Famous quotes containing the words granted and/or independence:

“Maturity: among other things, the unclouded happiness of the child at play, who takes it for granted that he is at one with his play-mates.”
—Dag Hammarskjöld (1905–1961)

“... we’re not out to benefit society, to remold existence, to make industry safe for anyone except ourselves, to give any small peoples except ourselves their rights. We’re not out for submerged tenths, we’re not going to suffer over how the other half lives. We’re out for Mary’s job and Luella’s art, and Barbara’s independence and the rest of our individual careers and desires.”
—Anne O’Hagan (1869–?)
