    “Affection, indulgence, and humor alike are powerless against the instinct of children to rebel. It is essential to their minds and their wills as exercise is to their bodies. If they have no reasons, they will invent them, like nations bound on war. It is hard to imagine families limp enough always to be at peace. Wherever there is character there will be conflict. The best that children and parents can hope for is that the wounds of their conflict may not be too deep or too lasting.”
    —New York State Division of Youth Newsletter (20th century)

    “There is a small steam engine in his brain which not only sets the cerebral mass in motion, but keeps the owner in hot water.”

    —John Locke (1632–1704)
