“I don't like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game,but it isn't exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.” PeopleIfsWellsDifferentFoundGamesSportsEnjoyHalfWatchesViolenceTeamFieldsFootballThousandQuietIntellectualEmptyBaseballBallsExcitingAppealsParksComparisonAfternoonAestheticStadiumsBounceTuesdayFootball GameSports TeamOne Sided Author:Bowie Kuhn
“In almost every professional field, in business and in the arts and sciences, women are still treated as second-class citizens. It would be a great service to tell girls who plan to work in society to expect this subtle, uncomfortable discrimination-tell them not to be quiet, and hope it will go away, but fight it. A girl should not expect special privileges because of her sex, but neither should she "adjust" to prejudice and discrimination.” ShouldArtStillsWould BeGirlFightingSexClassPlansSpecialFieldsCitizensQuietPrejudicePrivilegeDiscriminationTreatedUncomfortableSubtleGoing AwayArt And ScienceGreat ServiceSecond Class CitizensFeminine MystiqueTell A Girl Author:Betty Friedan

“I should like to be the landscape which I am contemplating, I should like this sky, this quiet water to think themselves within me, that it might be I whom they express in flesh and bone, and I remain at a distance. But it is also by this distance that the sky and the water exist before me. My contemplation is an excruciation only because it is also a joy. I can not appropriate the snow field where i slide. It remains foreign, forbidden, but I take delight in this very effort toward an impossible possession. I experience it as a triumph, not as a defeat.” ThinkingShouldI CanMightJoyWaterEffortImpossibleSkyFieldsQuietRemainsDistanceDefeatDelightPossessionBonesFleshSnowLandscapeTriumphContemplationExistentialismAppropriateContemplatingCan NotForbiddenSlides Book:The Ethics of Ambiguity Source: The Ethics of Ambiguity
