That sucks his breath like a wicked cat in bed.”

We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
“Our life is not so much threatened as our perception. Ghostlike we glide through nature, and should not know our place again.”
