Continuance Commitment

Famous quotes containing the words continuance and/or commitment:

    We endeavour more that men should speak of us, than how and what they speak, and it sufficeth us that our name run in men’s mouths, in what manner soever. It seemeth that to be known is in some sort to have life and continuance in other men’s keeping.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    A two-parent family based on love and commitment can be a wonderful thing, but historically speaking the “two-parent paradigm” has left an extraordinary amount of room for economic inequality, violence and male dominance.
    Stephanie Coontz (20th century)
