Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or left:
“If in the earlier part of the century, middle-class children suffered from overattentive mothers, from being “mother’s only accomplishment,” today’s children may suffer from an underestimation of their needs. Our idea of what a child needs in each case reflects what parents need. The child’s needs are thus a cultural football in an economic and marital game.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“That one true heart was left behind!
What feeling do we ever find
To equal among human kind
A dog’s fidelity!””
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
