• La solución obvia y justa al problema de las tareas domésticas es dejar que los hombres las realicen durante, digamos, los próximos seis mil años, para igualar las cosas. El problema es que los hombres, a lo largo de los años, han desarrollado una noción exagerada de la importancia de todo lo que hacen, de modo que en poco tiempo convertirían las tareas domésticas en una farsa como lo son ahora los negocios. Contrataban secretarias, compraban ordenadores y volaban a conferencias sobre tareas domésticas en las Bermudas, pero nunca limpiaban nada.

• Just as women supplement men in private life, so they will supplement men in public life by concentrating their organized efforts on those objects which men are likely to ignore. There is a tremendous field for women as active protagonists of new ideas and new methods of political and social housekeeping. When organized and conscious of their power to influence their surroundings, women can use their newly acquired freedom in a great many ways to mold the world into a better place to live in.
