Rum Line

Famous quotes containing the words rum and/or line:

    Yes the Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat—
    And there isn’t any call for me to shout it:
    For he will do
    As he do do
    And there’s no doing anything about it!
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The real dividing line between early childhood and middle childhood is not between the fifth year and the sixth year—it is more nearly when children are about seven or eight, moving on toward nine. Building the barrier at six has no psychological basis. It has come about only from the historic-economic-political fact that the age of six is when we provide schools for all.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
