Famous quotes containing the word ability:
“Parenting can be established as a time-share job, but mothers are less good switching off their parent identity and turning to something else. Many women envy the fathers ability to set clear boundaries between home and work, between being an on-duty and an off-duty parent.... Women work very hard to maintain a closeness to their child. Fathers value intimacy with a child, but often do not know how to work to maintain it.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
“The truth is, no matter how trying they become, babies two and under dont have the ability to make moral choices, so they cant be bad. That category only exists in the adult mind.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
“The scholar is that man who must take up into himself all the ability of the time, all the contributions of the past, all the hopes of the future. He must be an university of knowledges.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
