Specific Death Rates

Famous quotes containing the words specific, death and/or rates:

    No more distressing moment can ever face a British government than that which requires it to come to a hard, fast and specific decision.
    Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)

    My glass shall not persuade me I am old
    So long as youth and thou are of one date,
    But when in thee time’s furrows I behold,
    Then look I death my days should expiate.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    One of the most important findings to come out of our research is that being where you want to be is good for you. We found a very strong correlation between preferring the role you are in and well-being. The homemaker who is at home because she likes that “job,” because it meets her own desires and needs, tends to feel good about her life. The woman at work who wants to be there also rates high in well-being.
    Grace Baruch (20th century)
