Famous quotes containing the words areas of, areas and/or work:

    Adults understandably assume that the level of verbal proficiency a five-year-old displays represents his level of proficiency in all areas of functioning—if he talks like an adult, he must think and feel like one. However, five-year-olds,... belie the promise of adult-like behavior with their child-like, impulsive actions.
    Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

    The ambiguous, gray areas of authority and responsibility between parents and teachers exacerbate the distrust between them. The distrust is further complicated by the fact that it is rarely articulated, but usually remains smoldering and silent.
    Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)

    ‘Tis not need we know our every thought
    Or see the work shop where each mask is wrought
    Wherefrom we view the world of box and pit,
    Careless of wear, just so the mask shall fit
    And serve our jape’s turn for a night or two.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
