Famous quotes containing the words learning and/or time:
“Our goal as a parent is to give life to our childrens learningto instruct, to teach, to help them develop self-disciplinean ordering of the self from the inside, not imposition from the outside. Any technique that does not give life to a childs learning and leave a childs dignity intact cannot be called disciplineit is punishment, no matter what language it is clothed in.”
—Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
“The true reformer does not want time, nor money, nor coöperation, nor advice. What is time but the stuff delay is made of? And depend upon it, our virtue will not live on the interest of our money. He expects no income, but outgoes; so soon as we begin to count the cost, the cost begins. And as for advice, the information floating in the atmosphere of society is as evanescent and unserviceable to him as gossamer for clubs of Hercules.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
