Famous quotes containing the words serving, full and/or time:
“The man, or the boy, in his development is psychologically deterred from incorporating serving characteristics by an easily observable fact: there are already people around who are clearly meant to serve and they are girls and women.

This has been made a terrifying prospect and has been made to constitute a major threat to masculine identity.”

“Their learning is like bread in a besieged town: every man gets a little, but no man gets a full meal.”

“As if time put an edge

To show them there....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
