Famous quotes containing the word development:

    “As a final instance of the force of limitations in the development of concentration, I must mention that beautiful creature, Helen Keller, whom I have known for these many years. I am filled with wonder of her knowledge, acquired because shut out from all distraction. If I could have been deaf, dumb, and blind I also might have arrived at something.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
