“Around 80% of Liberians are unemployed and only half of all children go to primary school. Just one in 20 go on to secondary school. Young children are on the streets instead of in the classrooms. We are not giving them the opportunity to learn and they will struggle to get jobs when they grow up.” GivingChildrenSchoolJobsYoungOpportunityGrowsHalfStruggleGrowing UpStreetsGoes OnPrimariesJust OneClassroomUnemployedYoung ChildrenOpportunities To LearnPrimary SchoolSecondary School Author:George Weah

“Unfortunately, most people do not stop to feel their tiredness. Faced with the pressures of life, they believe that it is a matter of survival to go on as they have been. Feeling tired raises a deep fear that they may not be able to continue the struggle. Many find it difficult to say, ‘I can’t.’ As children, they were taught that where there’s a will, there’s a way. To say, ‘I can’t,’ is to admit failure, which is seen as evidence that they are unworthy of love.” PeopleWayFeelsBelieveMayChildrenHas BeensI CanMatterFeelingsAbleDifficultStruggleTaughtGoes OnSurvivalEvidencePressureRaisesTiredUnworthyTiredness Author:Alexander Lowen

“I used to play Barbies with my Mormon neighbor friend; it was always, "Oh, we're going to go on a date. Ken's taking us out, and we're going with Ken on a date." And I was like, "We're parachuting behind enemy lines to save the Jews." That's how I played Barbies. I was told when I was a girl that every Jewish woman has to have five children to replace three fifths of our people that were killed. That's how I was raised.” PeopleChildrenPlayUsedGirlThreeLinesBehindsEnemyFiveGoes OnRaisedJewNeighborBarbieNeighbors Friends Author:Roseanne Barr
“Our whole life can go on in observation of the laws of nature, if we gain dominion over our desires from the beginning and if we do not kill, by various means of a perverse art, the human offspring, born according to the designs of divine providence; for these women who, in order to hide their immorality, use abortive drugs which expel the child completely dead, abort at the same time their own human feelings.” IfsHumansMeanChildrenArtWholeUseFeelingsLawDesireOrderBornDesignDivineGoes OnDrugGainsVariousWhole LifeObservationProvidenceLaws Of NatureDominionOffspringImmoralityDivine Providence Author:Clement of Alexandria
“For a woman as for a man, marriage might enormously help or devastatingly hinder the growth of her power to contribute something impersonally valuable to the community in which she lived, but it was not that power, and could not be regarded as an end in itself. Nor, even, were children ends in themselves; it was useless to go on producing human beings merely in order that they, in their sequence, might produce others, and never turn from this business of continuous procreation to the accomplishment of some definite and lasting piece of work.” MenHumansChildrenEndsHelpingMightOrderTurnsGrowthCommunityHuman BeingsPiecesProduceGoes OnValuableUselessAccomplishmentLastingDefiniteSequenceBeing MeHinderProcreation Book:Testament of Youth: An Autobiographical Study Of The Years 1900-1925 Source: Testament of Youth: An Autobiographical Study Of The Years 1900-1925
