Famous quotes containing the words fleet and/or status:

    “A city on th’ inconstant billows dancing;
    For so appears this fleet majestical.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “A genuine Left doesn’t consider anyone’s suffering irrelevant or titillating; nor does it function as a microcosm of capitalist economy, with men competing for power and status at the top, and women doing all the work at the bottom.... Goodbye to all that.”
    —Robin Morgan (b. 1941)
