Famous quotes containing the words current and/or activities:

    Reputation runs behind the current state of affairs.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
