Picture Quotes Our society is monstrously disjunctive, at once so efficient in war and so inefficient in caring for the welfare of its members. It is frightening to see people rooting in garbage pails on streets, living in cardboard crates under bridges, while their government wages war. Even when there is an emergency in a household, decent parents do not forget to feed the children. —Anne TruittWhatsappFacebookTwitterGoogle PlusPinterestLinkedInBufferEmail this

Picture Quotes In the range of my character at any given moment, I have acted in the only way it seemed to me I could have acted.

Picture Quotes The difference between men and women is inalienable. It is not a political fact, subject to cultural definition and redefinition, but a physical verity.
