Kids Learn

Famous quotes containing the words kids and/or learn:

    But it’s hard to farm
    Between the stumps:
    The cows get thin, the milk tastes funny,
    The kids grow up and go to college
    They don’t come back
    the little fir-trees do
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    So here I am, in the middle way, having had twenty years—
    Twenty years largely wasted, the years of l’entre deux guerres—
    Trying to learn to use words, and every attempt
    Is a wholly new start, and a different kind of failure....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
