“They said I’d never get you back again.
I tell you what you’ll never really know:
all the medical hypothesis

struck leaves letting go.”

“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“The simple opposition between the people and big business has disappeared because the people themselves have become so deeply involved in big business.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
“Men are only as good as their technical development allows them to be.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
