    “I suppose one has a greater sense of intellectual degradation after an interview with a doctor than from any human experience.”
    —Alice James (1848–1892)

    “As a father I had some trouble finding the words to separate the person from the deed. Usually, when one of my sons broke the rules or a window, I was too angry to speak calmly and objectively. My own solution was to express my feelings, but in an exaggerated, humorous way: “You do that again and you will be grounded so long they will call you Rip Van Winkle II,” or “If I hear that word again, I’m going to braid your tongue.””
    —David Elkind (20th century)
