Ways

Famous quotes containing the word ways:

    We urgently need a debate about the best ways of supporting families in modern America, without blinders that prevent us from seeing the full extent of dependence and interdependence in American life. As long as we pretend that only poor or abnormal families need outside assistance, we will shortchange poor families, overcompensate rich ones, and fail to come up with effective policies for helping families in the middle.
    Stephanie Coontz (20th century)

    Thou art indeed just, Lord, if I contend
    With thee; but, sir, so what I plead is just.
    Why do sinners’ ways prosper? and why must
    Disappointment all I endeavour end?
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    Y’know the trouble with us is, we’ve both got the same disease—money, and happy ways of spending it.
    Mark Hanna, and Nathan Hertz. Honey Parker (Yvette Vickers)
