Famous quotes containing the words knowledge and/or base:
“And what, Socrates, is the food of the soul? Surely, I said, knowledge is the food of the soul.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“Adolescence is a time when children are supposed to move away from parents who are holding firm and protective behind them. When the parents disconnect, the children have no base to move away from or return to. They aren’t ready to face the world alone. With divorce, adolescents feel abandoned, and they are outraged at that abandonment. They are angry at both parents for letting them down. Often they feel that their parents broke the rules and so now they can too.”
—Mary Pipher (20th century)
