Famous quotes containing the words inferior and/or function:
“To have more virtues than talents is to be a superior person; to have more talents than virtues is to be an inferior one.”
—Chinese proverb.
“Our father has an even more important function than modeling manhood for us. He is also the authority to let us relax the requirements of the masculine model: if our father accepts us, then that declares us masculine enough to join the company of men. We, in effect, have our diploma in masculinity and can go on to develop other skills.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
