“John Gilpin was a citizen
Of credit and renown,
A train-band captain eke was he
Of famous London town.”

“Here is the paradox: What children take from us, they give. When we are not totally “free,” we learn how to cope with a smaller world, less time, less luxury,... We become people who feel more deeply, question more deeply, hurt more deeply and love more deeply.”
—Sonia Taitz (20th century)
