“There’s one basic rule you should remember about development charts that will save you countless hours of worry....

In the long run, it really doesn’t matter whether you learn to walk at ten months or fifteen months—as long as you learn how to walk.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

“What a man believes may be ascertained, not from his creed, but from the assumptions on which he habitually acts.”
