Famous quotes containing the word today:

    “Even today . . . experts, usually male, tell women how to be mothers and warn them that they should not have children if they have any intention of leaving their side in their early years. . . . Children don’t need parents’ full-time attendance or attention at any stage of their development. Many people will help take care of their needs, depending on who their parents are and how they chose to fulfill their roles.”
    —Stella Chess (20th century)

    “A good book is the best of friends, the same today and for ever.”
    —Martin Tupper (1810–1889)

    “My advice to people today is as follows: If you take the game of life seriously, if you take your nervous system seriously, if you take your sense organs seriously, if you take the energy process seriously, you must turn on, tune in, and drop out.”
    —Timothy Leary (b. 1920)
