Margaret Mead

Margaret Mead

Margaret Mead
Never depend upon institutions or government to solve any problem. All social movements are founded by, guided by, motivated and seen through by the passion of individuals.
Margaret Mead
You just have to learn not to care about the dusty mites under the beds.
Margaret Mead
In our contemporary world, no one can think or work with a single picture of what a family is. No one can fit all human behavior, all thought and feeling, into a single pattern.
Margaret Mead
Human nature is almost unbelievably malleable, responding accurately and contrastingly to contrasting cultural conditions.
Margaret Mead
Every time we liberate a woman, we liberate a man.
Margaret Mead
