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.”

—Katherine Gerson (20th century)
“Rhetoric may be defined as the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion.”
