Famous quotes containing the word vary:
“To know how to suggest is the great art of teaching. To attain it we must be able to guess what will interest; we must learn to read the childish soul as we might a piece of music. Then, by simply changing the key, we keep up the attraction and vary the song.”
—Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)
