It would be pointless and cruel to prescribe role combination for every woman at each moment of her life. Life has its seasons. There are moments when a woman ought to invest emotionally in many different roles, and other moments when she may need to conserve her psychological energies.”
    —Faye J. Crosby (20th century)

    “With two sons born eighteen months apart, I operated mainly on automatic pilot through the ceaseless activity of their early childhood.

    —Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
