Famous quotes containing the words significant, part and/or numbering:
“One of the most significant effects of age-segregation in our society has been the isolation of children from the world of work. Whereas in the past children not only saw what their parents did for a living but even shared substantially in the task, many children nowadays have only a vague notion of the nature of the parent’s job, and have had little or no opportunity to observe the parent, or for that matter any other adult, when he is fully engaged in his work.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
“Now we are part of the world, and the world is part of us. If any part suffers, all suffer. If any part loses freedom, all will lose it.”
—Michael Blankfort. Lewis Milestone. Dickerman (Jack Webb)
“The task he undertakes
Is numbering sands and drinking oceans dry.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
