Famous quotes containing the words area and/or names:

    “Many women are reluctant to allow men to enter their domain. They don’t want men to acquire skills in what has traditionally been their area of competence and one of their main sources of self-esteem. So while they complain about the male’s unwillingness to share in domestic duties, they continually push the male out when he moves too confidently into what has previously been their exclusive world.”
    —Bettina Arndt (20th century)

    “Holding myself the humblest of all whose names were before the convention, I feel in especial need of the assistance of all.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
