Famous quotes containing the word results:

    “Pain itself can be pleasurable accidentally in so far as it is accompanied by wonder, as in stage-plays; or in so far as it recalls a beloved object to one’s memory, and makes one feel one’s love for the thing, whose absence gives us pain. Consequently, since love is pleasant, both pain and whatever else results from love, in so far as they remind us of our love, are pleasant.”
    —Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225–1274)

    “There is ... in every child a painstaking teacher, so skilful that he obtains identical results in all children in all parts of the world. The only language men ever speak perfectly is the one they learn in babyhood, when no one can teach them anything!”
    —Maria Montessori (1870–1952)

    “Being a parent is unlike any previous job—the results of any one action are not clearly visible for a long time, if at all.”
    —Anonymous Mother. As quoted in Between Generations by Ellen Galinsky, ch. 2 (1981)
