Famous quotes containing the words john and/or berry:

    Quintilian [educational writer in Rome about A.D. 100] hoped that teachers would be sensitive to individual differences of temperament and ability. . . . Beating, he thought, was usually unnecessary. A teacher who had made the effort to understand his pupil’s individual needs and character could probably dispense with it: “I will content myself with saying that children are helpless and easily victimized, and that therefore no one should be given unlimited power over them.”
    —C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    Grandparents who want to be truly helpful will do well to keep their mouths shut and their opinions to themselves until these are requested.
    —T. Berry Brazelton (20th century)
