“Whenever I hear about a child needing something, I ask myself, ‘Is it what he needs or what he wants?’ It isn’t always easy to distinguish between the two. A child has many real needs which can and should be satisfied. His wants are a bottomless pit. He wants, for example, to sleep with his parents. He needs to be in his own bed. At Christmas he wants every toy advertised on television. He needs only one or two.”
—Haim Ginott (20th century)
“What reason have they for saying that we cannot rise from the dead? What is more difficult, to be born, or to rise again—that what has never been should be, or that what has been should be again?”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
