Famous quotes containing the words restore and/or hope:
“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)
“The All-Day Bird, the artist,
whitethroated sparrow
striving
in hope and
good faith to make his notes
ever more precise ...”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
