Famous quotes containing the word work:

    Martha, your father told me something once, a long time ago, when I first started to work with him: In the war of science, many people must die before any victory can be won.
    Robert D. Andrews, and Nick Grindé. Dr. Paul Ames (Bruce Bennett)

    The relationship between mother and professional has not been a partnership in which both work together on behalf of the child, in which the expert helps the mother achieve her own goals for her child. Instead, professionals often behave as if they alone are advocates for the child; as if they are the guardians of the child’s needs; as if the mother left to her own devices will surely damage the child and only the professional can rescue him.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    ...I still have faith occasionally in the brotherhood of man, and in spite of all the tragedies that have intervened since [1945], believe that sometime, somehow, all the nations of the world can work together for the common good.
    Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
