Difference

Famous quotes containing the word difference:

    The only difference between a man and woman climbing the ladder of success is that a woman is expected to put it in the closet when she’s finished with it.
    Barbara Dale (b. 1940)

    ...there is a difference between being convinced and being stubborn. I’m not certain what the difference is, but I do know that if you butt your head against a stone wall long enough, at some point you realize the wall is stone and that your head is flesh and blood.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    There is all the difference in the world between the criminal’s avoiding the public eye and the civil disobedient’s taking the law into his own hands in open defiance. This distinction between an open violation of the law, performed in public, and a clandestine one is so glaringly obvious that it can be neglected only by prejudice or ill will.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
