Quotable Quote... (QQ) is a series that I had fortuitously started in my office; where I used to send a quote daily (almost) to people who had subscribed for it & by the time I stopped it a few years back, there were a whooping 550 subscribers across organizations :) This blog is to relive those quotes... All quotes are from a personalized collection, hand written in a notebook ... originally created by my aunt ... later inherited and augmented by me :) Cheers!!!

since this quote has been suggested by ceedy .... let me come up with a comment first ;)
nice one dude ...
but then this can lead to a vicious circle of ambition between men & women, both trying to catch up with other as and when they go ahead ;)
**Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition
Firstly WOMEN can never be 'equal' with 'MEN' and vice versa. They will always be 'different' from each other.
But equal RIGHTS is a different thing.
It all depends on the context of the quote.

@hiren
First of thank you for putting the quote up.
This quote can be read in two ways
- one like you mentioned that could lead to viscious cycle and it is true
- the other like your previous posts - if "one" is aware of oneself then there is no comparision....we simply have to do our best....
@keshi
yes agree - this is not talking about equality though.
The way I see it is by comparing one to the other we are limiting our outward growth - how do we know that that man or woman has acheived the highest possible acheivement?
there is always room and scope for improvement and that should strengthen our growth rather than competetion....which could lead to what Hiren mentions above
yes thats what I meant from the first para in my comment. we cant be Equal cos we r Different in many ways, and we all hv our individual potential, like u said.
tnxx Ceedy!
Keshi.
agreed 100%!
good one mate:)
@kp
you need to change you comment :P
we know you love hiren q&q...;)
