Captain Von Trapp

Famous quotes containing the words captain, von and/or trapp:

    Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.
    Laurence Steinberg (20th century)

    New inventions can and will be made; however, nothing new can be thought of that concerns moral man. Everything has already been thought and said which at best we can express in different forms and give new expressions to.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    The due process of law as we use it, I believe, rests squarely on the liberal idea of conflict and resolution.
    —June L. Trapp (b. 1930)
