Famous quotes containing the words rank and/or structure:

    Pukka sahib or rank outsider—gentleman or bounder—and it’s accent, accent, all the way.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    The question is still asked of women: “How do you propose to answer the need for child care?” That is an obvious attempt to structure conflict in the old terms. The questions are rather: “If we as a human community want children, how does the total society propose to provide for them?”
    Jean Baker Miller (20th century)
