Famous quotes containing the words age, graded and/or side:
“Perhaps a modern society can remain stable only by eliminating adolescence, by giving its young, from the age of ten, the skills, responsibilities, and rewards of grownups, and opportunities for action in all spheres of life.

“I don’t want to be graded on a curve.”
—Mary Carillo (b. 1957)
