    Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment.

    Barbara Bowman (20th century)

    It doesn’t make any difference to me what a man does for a living, you understand. But your business is a little dangerous.
