Wisconsin Enabling Act

Famous quotes containing the words enabling and/or act:

    ...for it is God who is at work in you, enabling you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
    Bible: New Testament, Philippians 2:13.

    Adolescents may be, almost simultaneously, overconfident and riddled with fear. They are afraid of their overpowering feelings, of losing control, of helplessness, of failure. Sometimes they act bold, to counteract their imperious yearnings to remain children. They are impulsive, impetuous, moody, disagreeable, overdemanding, underappreciative. If you don’t understand them, remember, they don’t understand themselves most of the time.
    Stella Chess (20th century)
