—Anthony Powell (b. 1905)
“Todays pressures on middle-class children to grow up fast begin in early childhood. Chief among them is the pressure for early intellectual attainment, deriving from a changed perception of precocity. Several decades ago precocity was looked upon with great suspicion. The child prodigy, it was thought, turned out to be a neurotic adult; thus the phrase early ripe, early rot!”
—David Elkind (20th century)
“I see the callus on his sole,
The disappearing last of him
And of his race starvation slim,
Oh, years agoten thousand years.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
