Famous quotes containing the words parent and/or education:
“A man doesn’t have to have all the answers—children will teach him how to parent them, and in the process will teach him everything he needs to know about life.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“Nature has taken more care than the fondest parent for the education and refinement of her children. Consider the silent influence which flowers exert, no less upon the ditcher in the meadow than the lady in the bower. When I walk in the woods, I am reminded that a wise purveyor has been there before me; my most delicate experience is typified there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
