Famous quotes containing the words employment and/or affiliation:
“It is the business of the wealthy man
To give employment to the artisan.”
—Hilaire Belloc (18701953)
“Men seem more bound to the wheel of success than women do. That women are trained to get satisfaction from affiliation rather than achievement has tended to keep them from great achievement. But it has also freed them from unreasonable expectations about the satisfactions that professional achievement brings.”
—Phyllis Rose (b. 1942)
