Role Function

Famous quotes containing the words role and/or function:

“Whatever we’re doing, whoever we are, it isn’t enough. . . . Little wonder we have trouble finding role models to guide us through these shoals. No one less than God Herself could be all the things we’d like to be to all the people we’d like to feel approval from.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)

“We are thus able to distinguish thinking as the function which is to a large extent linguistic.”
