    Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    Thirty—the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.

    Don’t poets know it
    Better than others
    God can’t be always everywhere; and so,
    Invented Mothers.
    —Sir Edward Arnold. Originally quoted in Jessie Bernard, The Future of Motherhood, New York, Penquin Books (1974)
