Affect

Famous quotes containing the word affect:

    If the warmth of her Language could affect the Body it might
    be worth reading in this weather.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    I love the people,
    But do not like to stage me to their eyes;
    Though it do well, I do not relish well
    Their loud applause and aves vehement;
    Nor do I think the man of safe discretion
    That does affect it.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It is ultimately in employers’ best interests to have their employees’ families functioning smoothly. In the long run, children who misbehave because they are inadequately supervised or marital partners who disapprove of their spouse’s work situation are productivity problems. Just as work affects parents and children, parents and children affect the workplace by influencing the employed parents’ morale, absenteeism, and productivity.
    Ann C. Crouter (20th century)
