Household Income Rose

Famous quotes containing the words household, income and/or rose:

    Unaware of the absurdity of it, we introduce our own petty household rules into the economy of the universe for which the life of generations, peoples, of entire planets, has no importance in relation to the general development.
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

    You boast of spending a tenth part of your income in charity; maybe you should spend the nine tenths so, and done with it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Men seem more bound to the wheel of success than women do. That women are trained to get satisfaction from affiliation rather than achievement has tended to keep them from great achievement. But it has also freed them from unreasonable expectations about the satisfactions that professional achievement brings.
    —Phyllis Rose (b. 1942)
