Famous quotes containing the words folklore and/or song:
“Someday soon, we hope that all middle and high school will have required courses in child rearing for girls and boys to help prepare them for one of the most important and rewarding tasks of their adulthood: being a parent. Most of us become parents in our lifetime and it is not acceptable for young people to be steeped in ignorance or questionable folklore when they begin their critical journey as mothers and fathers.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
“I shall not sing a May song.
A May song should be gay.
I’ll wait until November
And sing a song of gray.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
