Famous quotes containing the words children and/or book:
“Parents must not only have certain ways of guiding by prohibition and permission; they must also be able to represent to the child a deep, an almost somatic conviction that there is a meaning to what they are doing. Ultimately, children become neurotic not from frustrations, but from the lack or loss of societal meaning in these frustrations.”
—Erik H. Erikson (20th century)
“Great nations write their autobiographies in three manuscripts--the book of their deeds, the book of their words, and the book of their art.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
