Generation Partnership Project

Famous quotes containing the words generation, partnership and/or project:

    What an infernal set of fools those schoolmarms must be! Well, if in order to please men they wish to live on air, let them. The sooner the present generation of women dies out, the better. We have idiots enough in the world now without such women propagating any more.
    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    Nevertheless, no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children’s best interests. Parents have every right to understand what is happening to their children at school, and teachers have the responsibility to share that information without prejudicial judgment.... Such communication, which can only be in a child’s interest, is not possible without mutual trust between parent and teacher.
    Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

    Treat the cow kindly, boys; remember she’s a lady—and a mother.
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
