Famous quotes containing the words warning and/or signs:
“We have not the motive to prepare ourselves for a “life-work” of teaching, of social work—we know that we would lay it down with hallelujah in the height of our success, to make a home for the right man. And all the time in the background of our consciousness rings the warning that perhaps the right man will never come. A great love is given to very few. Perhaps this make-shift time filler of a job is our life work after all.”
—Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)
“Cows wandered through the streets.... Vegetables grew chiefly in cans, and stream-beds and cañons glittered with these omnipresent signs of civilization.”
—Administration in the State of Colo, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
