“Quintilian [educational writer in Rome about A.D. 100] hoped that teachers would be sensitive to individual differences of temperament and ability. . . . Beating, he thought, was usually unnecessary. A teacher who had made the effort to understand his pupil’s individual needs and character could probably dispense with it: “I will content myself with saying that children are helpless and easily victimized, and that therefore no one should be given unlimited power over them.””
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)
““Hello, Arthur. This is your mother. Do you remember me? . . . Someday you’ll get married and have children of your own and Honey, when you do, I only pray that they’ll make you suffer the way you’re making me. That’s a Mother’s Prayer.””
—Mike Nichols (20th century)
