Famous quotes containing the words important and/or figures:

    Somehow we have been taught to believe that the experiences of girls and women are not important in the study and understanding of human behavior. If we know men, then we know all of humankind. These prevalent cultural attitudes totally deny the uniqueness of the female experience, limiting the development of girls and women and depriving a needy world of the gifts, talents, and resources our daughters have to offer.
    Jeanne Elium (20th century)

    The figures of the past go cloaked.
    They walk in mist and rain and snow
    And go, go slowly, but they go.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
