Fast Breeder

Famous quotes containing the words fast and/or breeder:

“Today’s pressures on middle-class children to grow up fast begin in early childhood. Chief among them is the pressure for early intellectual attainment, deriving from a changed perception of precocity. Several decades ago precocity was looked upon with great suspicion. The child prodigy, it was thought, turned out to be a neurotic adult; thus the phrase “early ripe, early rot!””
—David Elkind (20th century)

“Get thee to a nunnery. Why wouldst thou be a breeder of sinners?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
