Famous quotes containing the words original and/or arena:
“We are obliged to regard many of our original minds as crazy at least until we have become as clever as they are.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“Children treat their friends differently than they treat the other people in their lives. A friendship is a place for experimenting with new ways of handling anger and aggression. It is an arena for practicing reciprocity, testing assertiveness, and searching for compromise in ways children would not try with parents or siblings.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
