Famous quotes containing the word research:

    “The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a woman want?””
    —Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    “The working woman may be quick to see any problems with children as her fault because she isn’t as available to them. However, the fact that she is employed is rarely central to the conflict. And overall, studies show, being employed doesn’t have negative effects on children; carefully done research consistently makes this clear.”
    —Grace Baruch (20th century)

    “After all, the ultimate goal of all research is not objectivity, but truth.”
    —Helene Deutsch (1884–1982)
