Famous quotes containing the words negative and/or option:
“The working woman may be quick to see any problems with children as her fault because she isnt as available to them. However, the fact that she is employed is rarely central to the conflict. And overall, studies show, being employed doesnt have negative effects on children; carefully done research consistently makes this clear.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
“You dont merely give over your creativity to making a filmyou give over your life! In theatre, by contrast, you live these two rather strange lives simultaneously; you have no option but to confront the mould on last nights washing-up.”
—Daniel Day Lewis (b. 1957)
