Famous quotes containing the words working, poverty and/or rates:
“I am not a suffragist, nor do I believe in careers for women, especially a career in factory and mill where most working women have their careers. A great responsibility rests upon womanthe training of children. This is her most beautiful task.”
—Mother Jones (18301930)
“For whereer the sun does shine,
And whereer the rain does fall,
Babe can never hunger there,
Nor poverty the mind appall.”
—William Blake (17571827)
“One of the most important findings to come out of our research is that being where you want to be is good for you. We found a very strong correlation between preferring the role you are in and well-being. The homemaker who is at home because she likes that job, because it meets her own desires and needs, tends to feel good about her life. The woman at work who wants to be there also rates high in well-being.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
