Numerous Studies

Famous quotes containing the words numerous studies, numerous and/or studies:

    Numerous studies have shown that those adults who feel the most frustrated by children—and the least competent as parents—usually have one thing in common.... They don’t know what behaviors are normal and appropriate for children at different stages of development. This leads them to misinterpret their children’s natural behaviors and to have inappropriate expectations, both for their children and themselves.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    I dwell in Possibility—
    A fairer House than Prose—
    More numerous of Windows—
    Superior—for Doors—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    The best laws cannot make a constitution work in spite of morals; morals can turn the worst laws to advantage. That is a commonplace truth, but one to which my studies are always bringing me back. It is the central point in my conception. I see it at the end of all my reflections.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
