Kindergarten/purpose

Famous quotes containing the words kindergarten and/or purpose:

“Life begins at six—at least in the minds of six-year-olds. . . . In kindergarten you are the baby. In first grade you put down the baby. . . . Every first grader knows in some osmotic way that this is real life. . . . First grade is the first step on the way to a place in the grown-up world.”
—Stella Chess (20th century)

“The very purpose of existence is to reconcile the glowing opinion we have of ourselves with the appalling things that other people think about us.”
