Famous quotes containing the words bit and/or field:
“The world has always gone through periods of madness so as to advance a bit on the road to reason.”
—Hermann Broch (1886–1951)
“Mothers seem to be in subtle competition with teachers. There is always an underlying fear that teachers will do a better job than they have done with their child.... But mostly mothers feel that their areas of competence are very much similar to those of the teacher. In fact they feel they know their child better than anyone else and that the teacher doesn’t possess any special field of authority or expertise.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
