Transparent Society

Famous quotes containing the words transparent and/or society:

    People who live in transparent bodies shouldn’t be so suspicious.
    Curtis Siodmak (1902–1988)

    Jail sentences have many functions, but one is surely to send a message about what our society abhors and what it values. This week, the equation was twofold: female infidelity twice as bad as male abuse, the life of a woman half as valuable as that of a man. The killing of the woman taken in adultery has a long history and survives today in many cultures. One of those is our own.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
