Vocational Leaving

Famous quotes containing the words vocational and/or leaving:

    Nothing bad’s going to happen to us. If we get fired, it’s not failure; its a midlife vocational reassessment.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    ... the prevalent custom of educating young women only for marriage, and not for the duties and responsibilities consequent on marriage—only for appendages and dead weights to husbands—of bringing them up without an occupation, profession, or employment, and thus leaving them dependent on anyone but themselves—is an enormous evil, and an unpardonable sin.
    Harriot K. Hunt (1805–1875)
