Care Work

Famous quotes containing the words care and/or work:

“Babies don’t need fathers, but mothers do. Someone who is taking care of a baby needs to be taken care of.”
—Amy Heckerling (20th century)

“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
