Cost Machines

Famous quotes containing the words cost and/or machines:

    To become a token woman—whether you win the Nobel Prize or merely get tenure at the cost of denying your sisters—is to become something less than a man ... since men are loyal at least to their own world-view, their laws of brotherhood and self-interest.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    If men do not keep on speaking terms with children, they cease to be men, and become merely machines for eating and for earning money.
    John Updike (b. 1932)
