Famous quotes containing the words total and/or strength:
“The word infant derives from Latin words meaning not yet speaking. It emphasizes what the child cannot do and reflects the babys total dependence on adults. The word toddler, however, demonstrates our change in perspective, for it focuses on the childs increased mobility and burgeoning independence.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“Being a parent is a form of leadership. . . . Parents make a mistake, along with leaders of organizations, when they are unwilling to recognize the power inherent in the positions they occupy and when they are unwilling to use this power. . . . I do not mean a figure who is irrational, autocratic, or sadistic. I mean leaders who have the strength of character to stand up for what they believe.”
—Abraham Zaleznik. In Support of Families, ed. Michael W. Yogman and T. Berry Brazelton, ch. 8 (1986)
