Famous quotes containing the words summer and/or activities:

Floats though unseen among us, visiting
This various world with as inconstant wing
As summer winds that creep from flower to flower;”

“If it is to be done well, child-rearing requires, more than most activities of life, a good deal of decentering from one’s own needs and perspectives. Such decentering is relatively easy when a society is stable and when there is an extended, supportive structure that the parent can depend upon.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
