Authority Play

Famous quotes containing the words authority and/or play:

    Does it follow that I reject all authority? Perish the thought. In the matter of boots, I defer to the authority of the bootmaker.
    Mikhail Bakunin (1814–1876)

    It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.
    Marie Winn (20th century)
