Famous quotes containing the words social and/or problems:
“Im tired of earning my own living, paying my own bills, raising my own child. Im tired of the sound of my own voice crying out in the wilderness, raving on about equality and justice and a new social order.... Self-sufficiency is exhausting. Autonomy is lonely. Its so hard to be a feminist if you are a woman.”
—Jane OReilly, U.S. feminist and humorist. The Girl I Left Behind, ch. 7 (1980)
“I respect guilt. It is a dangerous but sometimes useful beast. The guilt that made me want to solve all my childrens problems meant trouble. The guilt that made me question my role in our mother-daughter squabbles proved helpful. Yes, I care about my kids problems, and I long to make suggestions. But these days I wait for children to ask for help, and I give it sparingly. Some things cant be fixed, and I tell them so.”
—Susan Ferraro (20th century)
