Famous quotes containing the words places and/or interest:

    There are few places outside his own play where a child can contribute to the world in which he finds himself. His world: dominated by adults who tell him what to do and when to do it—benevolent tyrants who dispense gifts to their “good” subjects and punishment to their “bad” ones, who are amused at the “cleverness” of children and annoyed by their “stupidities.”
    Viola Spolin (b. 1911)

    They were evidently small men, all wind and quibbles, flinging out their chaffy grain to us with far less interest than a farm- wife feels as she scatters corn to her fowls.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
