Famous quotes containing the words curriculum and/or vitae:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“Maria. Nay, but say true, does it work upon him?
Sir Toby Belch. Like aqua vitae with a midwife.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
