Famous quotes containing the words time and/or act:
“The surprises of thought are like those of love: they wear out. But here too you can carry on for a long time doing your conjugal duty.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“Once women begin to question the inevitability of their subordination and to reject the conventions formerly associated with it, they can no longer retreat to the safety of those conventions. The woman who rejects the stereotype of feminine weakness and dependence can no longer find much comfort in the cliché that all men are beasts. She has no choice except to believe, on the contrary, that men are human beings, and she finds it hard to forgive them when they act like animals.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
