“We started using celebrities back in the '70s because we wanted to convey a sense of confidence in women. But the celebrities we choose are chosen because they are also role models and something more than a celebrity.”
Carol Hamilton
“What Women Want: To be loved, to be listened to, to be desired, to be respected, to be needed, to be trusted, and sometimes, just to be held. What Men Want: Tickets for the world series.”
Dave Barry
“My research suggests that men and women may speak different languages that they assume are the same, using similar words to encode disparate experiences of self and social relationships.”
Carol Gilligan
“A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razor strap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.”
Mark Twain
“Leisure is time for doing something useful; this leisure the diligent man will obtain, but the lazy man never”
Benjamin Franklin
“I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no “brief candle” to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.”
George Bernard Shaw
“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.”
