National Societies

Famous quotes containing the words national and/or societies:

    A good man will not engage even in a national cause, without examining the justice of it.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    All that remains to the mother in modern consumer society is the role of scapegoat; psychoanalysis uses huge amounts of money and time to persuade analysands to foist their problems on to the absent mother, who has no opportunity to utter a word in her own defence. Hostility to the mother in our societies is an index of mental health.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
