Famous quotes containing the words choice and/or function:
“Come and take choice of all my library,
And so beguile thy sorrow.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“If the children and youth of a nation are afforded opportunity to develop their capacities to the fullest, if they are given the knowledge to understand the world and the wisdom to change it, then the prospects for the future are bright. In contrast, a society which neglects its children, however well it may function in other respects, risks eventual disorganization and demise.”
