Famous quotes containing the words testing and/or burst:
“Today so much rebellion is aimless and demoralizing precisely because children have no values to challenge. Teenage rebellion is a testing process in which young people try out various values in order to make them their own. But during those years of trial, error, embarrassment, a child needs family standards to fall back on, reliable habits of thought and feeling that provide security and protection.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“It was so old a ship—who knows, who knows?
MAnd yet so beautiful, I watched in vain
To see the mast burst open with a rose,
And the whole deck put on its leaves again.”
—James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)
