Ultimate Race

Famous quotes containing the words ultimate and/or race:

“Our culture still holds mothers almost exclusively responsible when things go wrong with the kids. Sensing this ultimate accountability, women are understandably reluctant to give up control or veto power. If the finger of blame was eventually going to point in your direction, wouldn’t you be?”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)

“Ought we to smile,
Perhaps make friends? No: in the race for seats
You’re best alone. Friendship is not worth while.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
