Birth Rate Decline

Famous quotes containing the words birth, rate and/or decline:

    Spirit enters flesh
    And for all it’s worth
    Charges into earth
    In birth after birth
    Ever fresh and fresh.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Unless a group of workers know their work is under surveillance, that they are being rated as fairly as human beings, with the fallibility that goes with human judgment, can rate them, and that at least an attempt is made to measure their worth to an organization in relative terms, they are likely to sink back on length of service as the sole reason for retention and promotion.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    My opposition [to interviews] lies in the fact that offhand answers have little value or grace of expression, and that such oral give and take helps to perpetuate the decline of the English language.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)
