Reserve Status

Famous quotes containing the words reserve and/or status:

    “Mutual repect implies discretion and reserve even in love itself; it means preserving as much liberty as possible to those whose life we share. We must distrust our instinct of intervention, for the desire to make one’s own will prevail is often disguised under the mask of solicitude.”
    —Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)

    “The influx of women into paid work and her increased power raise a woman’s aspirations and hopes for equal treatment at home. Her lower wage and status at work and the threat of divorce reduce what she presses for and actually expects.”
    —Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
