Quote by Virginia Woolf

To depend upon a profession is a less odious form of slavery than to depend upon a father.


To depend upon a profession is a less odious form of slavery

Summary

This quote suggests that relying on a profession for financial stability is preferable to relying on one's parents. While both situations involve dependency, the quote implies that being tied to a profession is less restrictive and degrading compared to relying on a paternal figure. It implies that depending on oneself through one's own work can lead to a greater sense of freedom and self-determination compared to being reliant on the support and guidance of a parent.
