    “One of the sadder things, I think,
    Is how our birthdays slowly sink:
    Presents and parties disappear,
    The cards grow fewer year by year,
    Till, when one reaches sixty-five,
    How many care we’re still alive?”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
    —Neil Kurshan (20th century)
