Famous quotes containing the words major and/or scale:
“No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“How many women does one need to sing the scale of love all the way up and down?”
—Georg Büchner (1813–1837)
