Force Constant

Famous quotes containing the words force and/or constant:

    Americans have internalized the value that mothers of young children should be mothers first and foremost, and not paid workers. The result is that a substantial amount of confusion, ambivalence, guilt, and anxiety is experienced by working mothers. Our cultural expectations of mother and realities of female participation in the labor force are directly contradictory.
    Ruth E. Zambrana, U.S. researcher, M. Hurst, and R.L. Hite. “The Working Mother in Contemporary Perspectives: A Review of Literature,” Pediatrics (December 1979)

    A constant smirk upon the face, and a whiffling activity of the body, are strong indications of futility.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
