Writ Ordering Return

Famous quotes containing the words writ, ordering and/or return:

    If you have writ your annals true, ‘tis there
    That, like an eagle in a dove-cote, I
    Fluttered your Volscians in Corioles.
    Alone I did it.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    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)

    We must return optimism to our parenting. To focus on the joys, not the hassles; the love, not the disappointments; the common sense, not the complexities.
    Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
