In any wind or weather
He steals the heart of maid
And man together.
The lover and his lass
Beneath the hawthorn lying,”

“Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
“I lie and wait for morning, and the birds,
The first steps going down the unswept street,
Voices of girls with scarves around their heads.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
