Famous quotes containing the words world, war and/or career:
“All the world knows how to cry but not all the world knows how to sigh.
Sighing is extra.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“Viewed as a drama, the war is somewhat disappointing.”
—D.W. (David Wark)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
