Famous quotes containing the words fighting and/or style:

    “In a toddler’s mind, agreeing with you means that he is indistinguishable from you.... The adamant little tot is fighting hard to solidify a personal sense of Self. Selfhood sometimes requires great sacrifice and often precludes cooperation.”
    —Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    “It is the style of idealism to console itself for the loss of something old with the ability to gape at something new.”
    —Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
