    “The Australian mind, I can state with authority, is easily boggled.”

    “The animal merely makes a bed, which he warms with his body, in a sheltered place; but man, having discovered fire, boxes up some air in a spacious apartment, and warms that.... Thus he goes a step or two beyond instinct, and saves a little time for the fine arts.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Some fear that if parents start listening to their own wants and needs they will neglect their children. It is our belief that children are in fact far less likely to be neglected when their parents’ needs—for support, for friendship, for decent work, for health care, for learning, for play, for time alone—are being met.”
    —Wendy Coppedge Sanford. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, introduction (1978)

    “We’re all of us guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.”
    —Tennessee Williams (1914–1983)
