Famous quotes containing the words language and/or closely:
“Our goal as a parent is to give life to our children’s learning—to instruct, to teach, to help them develop self-discipline—an ordering of the self from the inside, not imposition from the outside. Any technique that does not give life to a child’s learning and leave a child’s dignity intact cannot be called discipline—it is punishment, no matter what language it is clothed in.”
—Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
“But his kiss was so sweet, and so closely he pressed,
That I languished and pined till I granted the rest.”
—John Gay (1685–1732)
