Famous quotes containing the words performance and/or country:
“The child to be concerned about is the one who is actively unhappy, [in school].... In the long run, a child’s emotional development has a far greater impact on his life than his school performance or the curriculum’s richness, so it is wise to do everything possible to change a situation in which a child is suffering excessively.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
“In this country ... men seem to live for action as long as they can and sink into apathy when they retire.”
—Charles Francis Adams, Sr. (1807–1886)
