Famous quotes containing the words date and/or line:

“A preschool child does not emerge from your toddler on a given date or birthday. He becomes a child when he ceases to be a wayward, confusing, unpredictable and often balky person-in-the- making, and becomes a comparatively cooperative, eager-and-easy-to-please real human being—at least 60 per cent of the time.”
—Penelope Leach (20th century)

“Today, the notion of progress in a single line without goal or limit seems perhaps the most parochial notion of a very parochial century.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
