Famous quotes containing the word greater:

    I came along at a time when there was a demand to give men greater visibility and opportunity. In white society they were saying, “Women can’t do it.” In black society, they were saying, “Women do too much.” It’s a diabolical situation.
    Yvonne Braithwaite Burke (b. 1932)
