Famous quotes containing the words attitude and/or control:
“There is the guilt all soldiers feel for having broken the taboo against killing, a guilt as old as war itself. Add to this the soldiers sense of shame for having fought in actions that resulted, indirectly or directly, in the deaths of civilians. Then pile on top of that an attitude of social opprobrium, an attitude that made the fighting man feel personally morally responsible for the war, and you get your proverbial walking time bomb.”
—Philip Caputo (b. 1941)
“... the black girls didnt get these pills because their black ministers were up on the pulpit saying that birth control pills were black genocide. What Im saying is that black men have exploited black women.... They didnt want them to have any choice about their reproductive health. And if you cant control your reproduction, you cant control your life.”
—Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
