Memphis Law Review

Famous quotes containing the words law and/or review:

    The law of nature is, do the thing, and you shall have the power: but they who do not the thing have not the power.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Americans have internalized the value that mothers of young children should be mothers first and foremost, and not paid workers. The result is that a substantial amount of confusion, ambivalence, guilt, and anxiety is experienced by working mothers. Our cultural expectations of mother and realities of female participation in the labor force are directly contradictory.
    Ruth E. Zambrana, U.S. researcher, M. Hurst, and R.L. Hite. “The Working Mother in Contemporary Perspectives: A Review of Literature,” Pediatrics (December 1979)
