Learning in Childhood

Famous quotes containing the words learning and/or childhood:

    Some, for renown, on scraps of learning dote,
    And think they grow immortal as they quote.
    Edward Young (1683–1765)

    Why are all these dolls falling out of the sky?
    Was there a father?
    Or have the planets cut holes in their nets
    and let our childhood out,
    or are we the dolls themselves,
    born but never fed?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
