Famous quotes containing the words economic and/or loss:
“Societys 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)
“Our loss put six feet under ground
Is measured by the magnolias root;
Our gains the intellectual sound
Of deaths feet round a weedy tomb.”
—Allen Tate (18991979)
