Impact Magazines

Famous quotes containing the words impact and/or magazines:

    Too many existing classrooms for young children have this overriding goal: To get the children ready for first grade. This goal is unworthy. It is hurtful. This goal has had the most distorting impact on five-year-olds. It causes kindergartens to be merely the handmaidens of first grade.... Kindergarten teachers cannot look at their own children and plan for their present needs as five-year-olds.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    Most magazines have that look of being predestined to be left which one sees on the faces of the women whose troubles bring them to the Law Courts.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
