Ruth Benedict quotes about
differences safety world
The purpose of anthropology is to make the world safe for human differences.
marriage children home
So much of the trouble is because I am a woman. To me it seems a very terrible thing to be a woman. There is one crown which perhaps is worth it all--a great love, a quiet home, and children. We all know that is all that is worthwhile, and yet we must peg away, showing off our wares on the market if we have money, or manufacturing careers for ourselves if we haven't.
race diversity world
In world history, those who have helped to build the same culture are not necessarily of one race, and those of the same race have not all participated in one culture.
