Wage Gap

Famous quotes containing the words wage gap, wage and/or gap:

    Most women without children spend much more time than men on housework; with children, they devote more time to both housework and child care.

    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)

    My home policy: I wage war; my foreign policy: I wage war. All the time I wage war.
    Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)

    Wherever a man separates from the multitude, and goes his own way in this mood, there indeed is a fork in the road, though ordinary travelers may see only a gap in the paling. His solitary path across lots will turn out the higher way of the two.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
