Free Strokes

Famous quotes containing the words free and/or strokes:

“No man hath any quarrel to me. My remembrance is very free and clear from any image of offence done to any man.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Reprehension is a kind of middle thing betwixt admonition and correction: it is sharpe admonition, but a milde correction. It is rather to be used because it may be a meanes to prevent strokes and blowes, especially in ingenuous and good natured children. [Blows are] the last remedy which a parent can use: a remedy which may doe good when nothing else can.”
—William Gouge, Puritan writer. As quoted in The Rise and Fall of Childhood by C. John Sommerville, ch. 11 (rev. 1990)
