Human Identity

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or identity:

“It is not human nature we should accuse but the despicable conventions that pervert it.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)

“The “female culture” has shifted more rapidly than the “male culture”; the image of the go-get ‘em woman has yet to be fully matched by the image of the let’s take-care-of-the-kids- together man. More important, over the last thirty years, men’s underlying feelings about taking responsibility at home have changed much less than women’s feelings have changed about forging some kind of identity at work.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
