Famous quotes containing the words parent and/or education:
“The unjustifiable severity of a parent is loaded with this aggravation, that those whom he injures are always in his sight.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“A woman might claim to retain some of the child’s faculties, although very limited and defused, simply because she has not been encouraged to learn methods of thought and develop a disciplined mind. As long as education remains largely induction ignorance will retain these advantages over learning and it is time that women impudently put them to work.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
