Famous quotes containing the words original and/or career:

    It is conventional to call “monster” any blending of dissonant elements.... I call “monster” every original inexhaustible beauty.
    Alfred Jarry (1873–1907)

    Work-family conflicts—the trade-offs of your money or your life, your job or your child—would not be forced upon women with such sanguine disregard if men experienced the same career stalls caused by the-buck-stops-here responsibility for children.
    Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
