Famous quotes containing the word activities:

    “Minds do not act together in public; they simply stick together; and when their private activities are resumed, they fly apart again.”
    —Frank Moore Colby (1865–1925)

    “The interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind.”
    —Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    “If it is to be done well, child-rearing requires, more than most activities of life, a good deal of decentering from one’s own needs and perspectives. Such decentering is relatively easy when a society is stable and when there is an extended, supportive structure that the parent can depend upon.”
    —David Elkind (20th century)
