    “School divides life into two segments, which are increasingly of comparable length. As much as anything else, schooling implies custodial care for persons who are declared undesirable elsewhere by the simple fact that a school has been built to serve them.”

    “Grief fills the room up of my absent child,
    Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me,
    Puts on his pretty looks, repeats his words,
    Remembers me of all his gracious parts,
    Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form;
    Then have I reason to be fond of grief.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “lady through whose profound and fragile lips
    the sweet small clumsy feet of April came

    into the ragged meadow of my soul.”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)
