Barbara Ehrenreich Quotes

What I Have To Face Is That 'Barb,' The Name On My ID Tag, Is Not Exactly The Same Person As Barbara. 'Barb' Is What I Was Called As A Child, And Still Am By My Siblings, And I Sense That At Some Level I'm Regressing. Take Away The Career And The Higher Education, And Maybe What You're Left With Is This Original Barb, The One Who Might Have Ended Up Working At Wal-Mart For Real If Her Father Hadn't Managed To Climb Out Of The Mines. So It's Interesting, And More Than A Little Disturbing, To See How Barb Turned Out - That She's Meaner And Slyer Than I Am, More Cherishing Of Grudges, And Not Quite As Smart As I'd Hoped.
