Ned Learns

Famous quotes containing the words ned and/or learns:

    Where is the world we roved, Ned Bunn?
    Hollows thereof lay rich in shade
    By voyagers old inviolate thrown
    Ere Paul Pry cruised with Pelf and Trade.
    To us old lads some thoughts come home
    Who roamed a world young lads no more shall roam.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    A two-year-old can be taught to curb his aggressions completely if the parents employ strong enough methods, but the achievement of such control at an early age may be bought at a price which few parents today would be willing to pay. The slow education for control demands much more parental time and patience at the beginning, but the child who learns control in this way will be the child who acquires healthy self-discipline later.
    Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
