Collected Data

Famous quotes containing the words collected and/or data:

    A blind man will not thank you for a looking-glass.
    —Eighteenth-century English proverb. Collected in Thomas Fuller, Gnomologia (1732)

    Mental health data from the 1950’s on middle-aged women showed them to be a particularly distressed group, vulnerable to depression and feelings of uselessness. This isn’t surprising. If society tells you that your main role is to be attractive to men and you are getting crow’s feet, and to be a mother to children and yours are leaving home, no wonder you are distressed.
    Grace Baruch (20th century)
