Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or education:

    Early to rise and early to bed makes a male healthy and wealthy and dead.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    The fancy that extraterrestrial life is by definition of a higher order than our own is one that soothes all children, and many writers.
    Joan Didion (b. 1934)

    We find that the child who does not yet have language at his command, the child under two and a half, will be able to cooperate with our education if we go easy on the “blocking” techniques, the outright prohibitions, the “no’s” and go heavy on “substitution” techniques, that is, the redirection or certain impulses and the offering of substitute satisfactions.
    Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
