Famous quotes containing the words world, war and/or career:

    Aunt,
    there’s no such thing
    as honest love
    in the world of men.
    If there were,
    who’d separate?
    And if separation ever came to be,
    who could go on living?
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    The war is utter damn nonsense—a vast cancer fed by lies and self seeking [sic] malignity on the part of those who don’t do the fighting.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    They want to play at being mothers. So let them. Expressing tenderness in their own way will not prevent girls from enjoying a successful career in the future; indeed, the ability to nurture is as valuable a skill in the workplace as the ability to lead.
    Anne Roiphe (20th century)
