Famous quotes containing the words larger and/or prey:
“Even healthy families need outside sources of moral guidance to keep those tensions from imploding—and this means, among other things, a public philosophy of gender equality and concern for child welfare. When instead the larger culture aggrandizes wife beaters, degrades women or nods approvingly at child slappers, the family gets a little more dangerous for everyone, and so, inevitably, does the larger world.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (20th century)
“Careless credulity makes them the prey of those they trusted; and then they repeat their
mistake by suspecting all alike.”
—Marcus Minucius Felix (2nd or 3rd cen. A.D.)
