“In passing around the holy aged house (Kaa'bah), and crossing the Safa and Marwa lanes, in prayer inside the Ka'bah, in bowing and prostration, Kuwait was a prayer throbbed in my heart and uttered by my tongue.. Praying for God to protect us from the evils of ourselves and our bad deeds, Praying for God to keep blessing the people of Kuwait with the grace of unity, not to be torn by a difference, and the grace of love not to be destroyed by disputes, and the grace of progress not to be hampered by prejudices.” PeopleHeartEvilHouseDifferencesPrayerGraceProgressPrayingMy HeartHolyBlessingProtectPrejudiceUnityDeedsTonguePassingPassingsDestroyedTornDisputesCrossingsLanesKuwaitProstration Author:Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah

“I think the important thing about sisters is that they share the same minute, familiar life-style, the same little sets of rules. Therefore they can keep house with each other late in life, because they share the same bunch of housewifely prejudices. The important thing about women today is, as they get older, they still keep house. It's one reason they don't die, but men die when they retire. Women just polish the teacups.” ThinkingMenLittlesStillsImportantReasonTodayDiesHouseShareMinutesStyleLatePrejudiceImportant ThingsBunchFamiliarRetiringPolishLife Style Author:Margaret Mead

“We live amid falling taboos. In our crowded little hour of history we have seen how the prejudice of religion no longer can bar the way to the White House. Some of you may live to see the day when the prejudice of sex no longer places the Presidency beyond the reach of a greatly gifted American lady. Long before them, I hope you will see a woman member of the Supreme Court of the United States. In Congress and in our State Legislatures we need more women to bring their sensitive experience to the shaping of our decisions.” WayNeedsMayLittlesLongStatesFallHousePoliticsSexWomenHoursWhiteDecisionUnitedUnited StatesMembersPrejudiceCourtCongressSupremeBarsSensitiveWhite HouseGiftedPresidencySupreme CourtCrowdedTabooLegislatureState Legislatures Author:Lyndon B.

“The core of Animal House was about prejudice, about equality, and about inclusion/exclusion. It was about a group of people who were together and anything went. Anybody who wanted in could get it in. Then there was that other group that nobody could get in, unless they were white, and just alike. It was very representative of the culture in the '60s, '50s, and '40s in America.” PeopleTogetherCultureHouseAnimalPrejudiceInclusion Author:Tim Matheson
“I had not seen "Pride and Prejudice," till I read that sentence of yours, and then I got the book. And what did I find? An accurate daguerreotyped portrait of a common-place face; a carefully fenced, highly cultivated garden, with neat borders and delicate flowers; but no glance of a bright, vivid physiognomy, no open country, no fresh air, no blue hill, no bonny beck. I should hardly like to live with her ladies and gentlemen, in their elegant but confined houses.” ShouldBookCountryFacesHouseCommonAirFlowerPrideGardenPrejudiceBlueSentencesHillsBordersGentlemanDelicateAccuratePortraitsGlancesElegantVividConfinedNeatFresh AirLadies And GentlemenPhysiognomyDelicate Flower Author:Charlotte Bronte
“For [Jane Austen and the readers of Pride and Prejudice], as for Mr. Darcy, [Elizabeth Bennett's] solitary walks express the independence that literally takes the heroine out of the social sphere of the houses and their inhabitants, into a larger, lonelier world where she is free to think: walking articulates both physical and mental freedom.” ThinkingWorldHouseSocialWalksJourneyPrideReaderWalkingPrejudiceIndependenceWanderSpheresHikingSolitaryJaneTrekkingStrollingHeroinesSaunteringAustenDarcy Author:Rebecca Solnit

“In reality no food is valued solely for its nutritive power and no garment or house solely for the protection it affords against cold weather and rain.... the demand for goods is widely influenced by metaphysical, religious, and ethical considerations, by aesthetic value judgments, by customs, habits, prejudice, tradition, changing fashions, and many other things.” NeedsIdeasRealityValuesHouseReligiousFashionColdHabitDemandJudgmentRainTraditionPrejudiceProtectionWeatherConsiderationGoodsCustomsEthicalAestheticMetaphysicalGarmentsCold Weather Book:Human Action Source: Human Action
