Famous quotes containing the word identity:
“The female culture has shifted more rapidly than the male culture; the image of the go-get em woman has yet to be fully matched by the image of the lets take-care-of-the-kids- together man. More important, over the last thirty years, mens underlying feelings about taking responsibility at home have changed much less than womens feelings have changed about forging some kind of identity at work.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“An identity would seem to be arrived at by the way in which the person faces and uses his experience.”
—James Baldwin (19241987)
“Though your views are in straight antagonism to theirs, assume an identity of sentiment, assume that you are saying precisely that which all think, and in the flow of wit and love roll out your paradoxes in solid column, with not the infirmity of a doubt.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
