Discovering

Famous quotes containing the word discovering:

    License my roving hands, and let them go
    Before, behind, between, above, below.
    O my America! my new-found-land,
    My kingdom, safeliest when with one man manned,
    My mine of precious stones, my empery,
    How blest am I in this discovering thee!
    To enter in these bonds is to be free;
    Then where my hand is set, my seal shall be.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    Each child has his own individual expressions to offer to the world. That expression can take many forms, from artistic interests, a way of thinking, athletic activities, a particular style of dressing, musical talents, different hobbies, etc. Our job is to join our children in discovering who they are.
    Stephanie Martson (20th century)

    Until we devise means of discovering workers who are temperamentally irked by monotony it will be well to take for granted that the majority of human beings cannot safely be regimented at work without relief in the form of education and recreation and pleasant surroundings.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
