Famous quotes containing the words permanently, dependent and/or child:

    ...I knew I wanted to be permanently self-supporting and I vaguely thought I might work somewhere in the realm of ideas. I felt that I had within me an undeveloped fount of ideas. I did not know exactly what my ideas were, but whatever they were I wanted to convert people to them.

    The female of the genus homo is economically dependent on the male. He is her food supply.

    the child unlucky in his little State,
    Some hearth where freedom is excluded,
    A hive whose honey is fear and worry,
    Feels calmer now and somehow assured of escape;
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
