Famous quotes containing the words activities and/or class:
“Juggling produces both practical and psychological benefits.... A woman’s involvement in one role can enhance her functioning in another. Being a wife can make it easier to work outside the home. Being a mother can facilitate the activities and foster the skills of the efficient wife or of the effective worker. And employment outside the home can contribute in substantial, practical ways to how one works within the home, as a spouse and as a parent.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
“There is only one class in the community that thinks more about money than the rich, and that is the poor. The poor can think of nothing else.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
