Famous quotes containing the words body and/or platform:
“We may well ask, What causes induce us to believe in the existence of body? but tis vain to ask. Whether there be body or not? That is a point which we must take for granted in all our reasonings.”
—David Hume (17111776)
“I have never yet spoken from a public platform about women in industry that someone has not said, But things are far better than they used to be. I confess to impatience with persons who are satisfied with a dangerously slow tempo of progress for half of society in an age which requires a much faster tempo than in the days that used to be. Let us use what might be instead of what has been as our yardstick!”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877?)
