Famous quotes containing the words review of, review and/or case:

    Americans have internalized the value that mothers of young children should be mothers first and foremost, and not paid workers. The result is that a substantial amount of confusion, ambivalence, guilt, and anxiety is experienced by working mothers. Our cultural expectations of mother and realities of female participation in the labor force are directly contradictory.
    Ruth E. Zambrana, U.S. researcher, M. Hurst, and R.L. Hite. “The Working Mother in Contemporary Perspectives: A Review of Literature,” Pediatrics (December 1979)

    As I review my life, I feel I must have missed the point, either then or now.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    God ... created a number of possibilities in case some of his prototypes failed—that is the meaning of evolution.
