Times Alternately Upright

Famous quotes containing the words times, alternately and/or upright:

    “We women are not made for governing and if we are good women, we must dislike these masculine occupations; but there are times which force one to take interest in them mal gré bon gré, and I do, of course, intensely.”
    —Victoria (1819–1901)

    “Every society consists of men in the process of developing from children into parents. To assure continuity of tradition, society must early prepare for parenthood in its children; and it must take care of the unavoidable remnants of infantility in its adults. This is a large order, especially since a society needs many beings who can follow, a few who can lead, and some who can do both, alternately or in different areas of life.”
    —Erik H. Erikson (1904–1994)

    “For this is the mark of a wise and upright man, not to rail against the gods in misfortune.”
    —Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
