“Whatever else American thinkers do, they psychologize, often brilliantly. The trouble is that psychology only takes us so far. The new interest in families has its merits, but it will have done us all a disservice if it turns us away from public issues to private matters.

—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
“Children from humble families must be taught how to command just as other children must be taught how to obey.”
