Ruskin/institutions

Famous quotes containing the words ruskin and/or institutions:

    It is in this power of saying everything, and yet saying nothing too plainly, that the perfection of art ... consists.
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    We as a nation need to be reeducated about the necessary and sufficient conditions for making human beings human. We need to be reeducated not as parents—but as workers, neighbors, and friends; and as members of the organizations, committees, boards—and, especially, the informal networks that control our social institutions and thereby determine the conditions of life for our families and their children.
    Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
