Margaret Mead

Margaret Mead
This is a precious possession which we cannot afford to tarnish, but society always is attempting to make the physician into a killer to kill the defective child at birth, to leave the sleeping pills beside the bed of the cancer patient ... It is the duty of society to protect the physicians from such requests.
Margaret Mead
Every time we liberate a woman, we liberate a man.
Margaret Mead

Margaret Mead
Women are scolded both for being mothers and for not being mothers, for wanting to eat their cake and have it too, and for not wanting to eat their cake and have it too.
Margaret Mead
Leisure and the cultivation of human capacities are inextricably interdependent.
Margaret Mead
The United States has the power to destroy the world, but not the power to save it alone
Margaret Mead
No society that feeds its children on tales of successful violence can expect them not to believe that violence in the end is rewarded.
Margaret Mead
EARTH DAY reminds the people of the world of the need for continuing care which is vital to Earth's safety.
Margaret Mead
We are living beyond our means. As a people we have developed a life-style that is draining the earth of its priceless and irreplaceable resources without regard for the future of our children and people all around the world.
Margaret Mead
I learned the value of hard work by working hard.
Margaret Mead
to the extent that either sex is disadvantaged, the whole culture is poorer, and the sex that, superficially, inherits the earth, inherits only a very partial legacy. The more whole the culture, the more whole each member, each man, each woman, each child will be.
Margaret Mead
