Main Active

Famous quotes containing the words main and/or active:

    Men enter by force, drawn back like Jonah
    into their fleshy mothers.
    A woman is her mother.
    That’s the main thing.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Women have acquired equal place to man in society, but the double standard has really never been relinquished; certainly not by men. Modern man’s fear of passivity or of the active woman proves to be as eternal as modern woman’s struggle to come to terms with her femininity.
    Peter Blos (20th century)
