Point Light

Famous quotes containing the words point and/or light:

    “Most childhood problems don’t result from “bad” parenting, but are the inevitable result of the growing that parents and children do together.

    —Fred Rogers (20th century)

    “Today brings the sad, glad tidings that Mrs. Abraham Lincoln has passed from that darkness which had fallen upon her path through this life, out into the light and joy of that life toward which her vision has so long been strained.
    Modern education is lethal to children.... We stuff them with mathematics, we pummel them with science, and we use them up before their time.”
    —HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)
