Double Ten Day

Famous quotes containing the words double, ten and/or day:

    Society’s double behavioral standard for women and for men is, in fact, a more effective deterrent than economic discrimination because it is more insidious, less tangible. Economic disadvantages involve ascertainable amounts, but the very nature of societal value judgments makes them harder to define, their effects harder to relate.
    Anne Tucker (b. 1945)

    A right result, at this time, will be worth more to the world, than ten times the men, and ten times the money.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Lips that sealed up the sense from gnawing time
    Now beg the favor with a graveyard grin.
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)
