Famous quotes containing the words recognition of, recognition, unions and/or greece:

    “Productive collaborations between family and school, therefore, will demand that parents and teachers recognize the critical importance of each other’s participation in the life of the child. This mutuality of knowledge, understanding, and empathy comes not only with a recognition of the child as the central purpose for the collaboration but also with a recognition of the need to maintain roles and relationships with children that are comprehensive, dynamic, and differentiated.”
    —Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)

    “Admiration. Our polite recognition of another’s resemblance to ourselves.”
    —Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    “When Hitler attacked the Jews ... I was not a Jew, therefore, I was not concerned. And when Hitler attacked the Catholics, I was not a Catholic, and therefore, I was not concerned. And when Hitler attacked the unions and the industrialists, I was not a member of the unions and I was not concerned. Then, Hitler attacked me and the Protestant church—and there was nobody left to be concerned.”
    —Martin Niemller (1892–1984)

    “When a man hath no freedom to fight for at home,
    Let him combat for that of his neighbors;
    Let him think of the glories of Greece and of Rome,
    And get knocked on the head for his labors.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
