Light Level

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or level:

“A lover may bestride the gossamers
That idles in the wanton summer air,
And yet not fall; so light is vanity.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Preschoolers sound much brighter and more knowledgeable than they really are, which is why so many parents and grandparents are so sure their progeny are gifted and super-bright. Because children’s questions sound so mature and sophisticated, we are tempted to answer them at a level of abstraction far beyond the child’s level of comprehension. That is a temptation we should resist.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
