Famous quotes containing the words relative and/or position:
“It is an interesting question how far men would retain their relative rank if they were divested of their clothes.”

“I believe that all women of working ages and physical capacity, regardless of income, should be expected to earn their livings either in or out of the home.

—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
