Famous quotes containing the words middle and/or temple:
“In our calling, we have to choose; we must make our fortune either in this world or in the next, there is no middle way.”
—Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)
“No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
