“Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“I made a list of things I have
to remember and a list
of things I want to forget,
but I see they are the same list.”

—Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
“The city is recruited from the country. In the year 1805, it is said, every legitimate monarch in Europe was imbecile.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
