Famous quotes containing the words professional, school and/or psychology:

    “The relationship between mother and professional has not been a partnership in which both work together on behalf of the child, in which the expert helps the mother achieve her own goals for her child. Instead, professionals often behave as if they alone are advocates for the child; as if they are the guardians of the child’s needs; as if the mother left to her own devices will surely damage the child and only the professional can rescue him.”
    —Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    “You send a boy to school in order to make friends—the right sort.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    “Fundamentally the male artist approximates more to the psychology of woman, who, biologically speaking, is a purely creative being and whose personality has been as mysterious and unfathomable to the man as the artist has been to the average person.”
    —Beatrice Hinkle (1874–1953)
