Customary Areas

Famous quotes containing the words customary and/or areas:

“It has become customary to say that a man needs only six feet of land. But a corpse needs six feet, not a person.”

“Helping children at a level of genuine intellectual inquiry takes imagination on the part of the adult. Even more, it takes the courage to become a resource in unfamiliar areas of knowledge and in ones for which one has no taste. But parents, no less than teachers, must respect a child’s mind and not exploit it for their own vanity or ambition, or to soothe their own anxiety.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
