Famous quotes containing the words current and/or management:

    But human experience is usually paradoxical, that means incongruous with the phrases of current talk or even current philosophy.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
