Achievement

Famous quotes containing the word achievement:

    What seems to me the highest and the most difficult achievement of Art is not to make us laugh or cry, or to rouse our lust or our anger, but to do as nature does—that is, fill us with wonderment.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    Fascism is a European inquietude. It is a way of knowing everything—history, the State, the achievement of the proletarianization of public life, a new way of knowing the phenomena of our epoch.
    J.A. (José Antonio)

    A two-year-old can be taught to curb his aggressions completely if the parents employ strong enough methods, but the achievement of such control at an early age may be bought at a price which few parents today would be willing to pay. The slow education for control demands much more parental time and patience at the beginning, but the child who learns control in this way will be the child who acquires healthy self-discipline later.
    Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
