Famous quotes containing the words selected, children and/or books:

    “There is no reason why parents who work hard at a job to support a family, who nurture children during the hours at home, and who have searched for and selected the best [daycare] arrangement possible for their children need to feel anxious and guilty. It almost seems as if our culture wants parents to experience these negative feelings.”
    —Gwen Morgan (20th century)

    “Just as children, step by step, must separate from their parents, we will have to separate from them. And we will probably suffer...from some degree of separation anxiety: because separation ends sweet symbiosis. Because separation reduces our power and control. Because separation makes us feel less needed, less important. And because separation exposes our children to danger.”
    —Judith Viorst (20th century)

    “The future? Like unwritten books and unborn children, you don’t talk about it.”
    —Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (b. 1925)
