Letter Position

Famous quotes containing the words letter and/or position:

And the hall to paint in his old trousers
And that letter to her mother
Saying Won’t you come for the summer.”

“The first full-fledged generation of women in the professions did not talk about their overbooked agenda or the toll it took on them and their families. They knew that their position in the office was shaky at best. . . . If they suffered self-doubt or frustration . . . they blamed themselves—either for expecting too much or for doing too little.”
—Deborah J. Swiss (20th century)
