    “Frankly, I do not like the idea of conversations to define the term “unconditional surrender.” ... The German people can have dinned into their ears what I said in my Christmas Eve speech—in effect, that we have no thought of destroying the German people and that we want them to live through the generations like other European peoples on condition, of course, that they get rid of their present philosophy of conquest.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    “Lord Bateman was a noble lord,
    A noble lord of high degree,”
    —Unknown. Young Beichan (l. 1–2)

    “Ordinary time is “quality time” too. Everyday activities are not just necessities that keep you from serious child rearing: they are the best opportunities for learning you can give your child...because her chief task in her first three years is precisely to gain command of the day-to-day life you take for granted.”
    —Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
