Quest Acquired

Famous quotes containing the words quest and/or acquired:

    “The quest for certainty blocks the search for meaning. Uncertainty is the very condition to impel man to unfold his powers.”
    —Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    “The poorest children in a community now find the beneficent kindergarten open to them from the age of two-and-a-half to six years. Too young heretofore to be eligible to any public school, they have acquired in their babyhood the vicious tendencies of their own depraved neighborhoods; and to their environment at that tender age had been due the loss of decency and self-respect that no after example of education has been able to restore to them.”
    —Virginia Thrall Smith (1836–1903)
