Gender Role Orientation

Famous quotes containing the words gender, role and/or orientation:

    “But there, where I have garnered up my heart,
    Where either I must live or bear no life;
    The fountain from the which my current runs
    Or else dries up: to be discarded thence,
    Or keep it as a cistern for foul toads
    To knot and gender in!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The role of the writer is not simply to arrange Being according to his own lights; he must also serve as a medium to Being and remain open to its often unfathomable dictates. This is the only way the work can transcend its creator and radiate its meaning further than the author himself can see or perceive.”
    —Václav Havel (b. 1936)

    “Every orientation presupposes a disorientation.”
    —Hans Magnus Enzensberger (b. 1929)
