    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Who, to find what will suffice,
    Destroys romantic tenements
    Of rose and ice....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Football strategy does not originate in a scrimmage: it is useless to expect solutions in a political compaign.

    If we parents accept that problems are an essential part of life’s challenges, rather than reacting to every problem as if something has gone wrong with universe that’s supposed to be perfect, we can demonstrate serenity and confidence in problem solving for our kids....By telling them that we know they have a problem and we know they can solve it, we can pass on a realistic attitude as well as empower our children with self-confidence and a sense of their own worth.
    Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
