—Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)
“The trouble with most problem-solving books for parents is that they start with the idea that the child has a problem. Then they try to tell us how to fix the child, or else, after blaming the parent, they suggest how we can fix ourselves.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
“The lessons taught in great books are misleading. The commerce in life is rarely so simple and never so just.”
