In the past decade ordsprog

en In the past decade or so, the women's magazines have taken to running home-handyperson articles suggesting that women can learn to fix things just as well as men. These articles are apparently based on the ludicrous assumption that _men_ know how to fix things, when in fact all they know how to do is _look_ at things in a certain squinty-eyed manner, which they learned in Wood Shop; eventually, when enough things in the home are broken, they take a job requiring them to transfer to another home.

Earlier this year the president of Harvard got in trouble for suggesting that women didn't have the right stuff for science (he has since apologized). Recent stories about women at elite colleges who want to ditch it all to stay home with their kids have prompted a furious debate among professional women. There is a fear that all those glass ceilings have been broken for naught and younger women who grew up with working mothers struggling to have it all have decided that the struggle just isn't worth it. Whether younger women stick with that choice is, of course, still unclear. Their future undoubtedly holds many surprises, at work and at home, just as it did for the groundbreaking generation that preceded them.] There is no real balance of work and family in America, ... You integrate work and family and do the best you can.

en They've played our offense in the past and they'll also have a game to see exactly what we're doing, and maybe Arkansas State didn't. They maybe guessed on a few things based on reading articles.

en I have known an interesting, sexy, independent woman for some 50 years and have had many opportunities to observe her in many different situations. And one of the many things I have learned during the course of our relationship is that ultimately the things that separate women from men are less significant than the things that we have in common with each other.

en I don't want us to live and die by the home run. Home runs are nice, they're beautiful things and everything, no doubt. But the winning clubs are the ones that do the little things, too.

en It's passionately interesting for me that the things that I learned in a small town, in a very modest home, are just the things that I believe have won the election.

You saw a 5-wood in women's sets a little bit. That's why I went to a custom club shop. You just couldn't walk in and buy a 5-wood. ... We had 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-woods, and that was it.

en We ought to have a plan to bring our people home, ... I'm not suggesting any particular deadline, but I think our men and women ought to be brought home. The National Guard, in particular, ought to be here serving our country when we have storms like Katrina.

en We're excited to play on our home field and in front of our home crowd. We need to take each game one pitch at a time. I just have to focus on each pitch and hit my spots. When the little things fall into place the big things will come.

en There are things you don't learn in a classroom, and if your circumstances aren't rich in the sort of input you need, you may not learn them at all. Unless you have a home where these things are specifically talked about and reinforced, or a mentor or guide of some sort, you may not be able to figure out where the road is, let alone how to take it, or what direction.
