Famous quotes containing the words economic and/or theories:
“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)
“A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
