Major Institutions

Famous quotes containing the words major and/or institutions:

“What, really, is wanted from a neighborhood? Convenience, certainly, an absence of major aggravation, to be sure. But perhaps most of all, ideally, what is wanted is a comfortable background, a breathing space of intermission between the intensities of private life and the calculations of public life.”
—Joseph Epstein (b. 1937)

“Schools are generally feminine places, institutions where conformity is valued, taught largely by conformist women.”
