Famous quotes containing the words british, business and/or interests:

    Quite frankly, if you bed people of belowstairs class, they go to the papers.

    Like a man to double business bound,
    I stand in pause where I shall first begin,
    And both neglect.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Women are taught that their main goal in life is to serve others—first men, and later, children. This prescription leads to enormous problems, for it is supposed to be carried out as if women did not have needs of their own, as if one could serve others without simultaneously attending to one’s own interests and desires. Carried to its “perfection,” it produces the martyr syndrome or the smothering wife and mother.
    Jean Baker Miller (20th century)
