...estimates that companies lose half of their new college graduates within the first three to five years of employment. Graduates of 15 years ago often regarded a job, like a marriage, as being for life; today's young men are more inclined to equate it with an affair-good until something more fetching comes along. George Robbins, dean of U.C.L.A.'s Graduate School of Business Administration, ascribes the job turnover to an increase in specialization, which tends to put loyalty to a profession above loyalty to a company. Underlying everything is the security of a full-employment economy...
...Menis Karageorgis, 36, worked as a ship's master on one of his father's two freighters before he took over in 1959. "I bought my first ship with my father's good name as the only guarantee, but that was enough," he says. With that kind of credit, plus hard work and luck, he has built up a fleet of 600,000 tons. He takes pride in knowing by name all the crewmen on his 20 ships...
...plot and motivation in the film; those who have not will be completely and hopelessly confused. The first -and better-part of Justine is devoted mostly to atmospherics, establishing the characters and their relationships with one another and the city of Alexandria.

Fortunately for the prince, they were mostly inept, often irritating, but sometimes diverting. There was one glorious day when he conned one of the Czar's gumshoes into carrying his luggage. The rules...
Basically, anarchism presents in the most extreme form the notion that man is essentially good, noble and altruistic but is perverted from his true nature by bad authoritarian institutions. In spite of all evidence to the contrary-not just the obvious beastliness of the bourgeoisie, officials and police but the perfidy, cowardice, treachery that would turn up even among the comrades-Kropotkin continued to believe in the goodness of man. If everyone were like him, anarchism might have a chance. But few men like Peter Kropotkin grow on the family tree of man-a fact that Kropotkin himself never realized...
