    “In child rearing it would unquestionably be easier if a child were to do something because we say so. The authoritarian method does expedite things, but it does not produce independent functioning. If a child has not mastered the underlying principles of human interactions and merely conforms out of coercion or conditioning, he has no tools to use, no resources to apply in the next situation that confronts him.”
    —Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    “The mode of founding a college is, commonly, to get up a subscription of dollars and cents, and then, following blindly the principles of a division of labor to its extreme,—a principle which should never be followed but with circumspection,—to call in a contractor who makes this a subject of speculation,... and for these oversights successive generations have to pay.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “With all the surgical skill and the vital rays lavished on him he should talk like a—like a congressman at a filibuster.”
    —Kenneth Langtry. Herbert L. Strock. Prof. Frankenstein (Whit Bissell)

    “In the planning and designing of new communities, housing projects, and urban renewal, the planners both public and private, need to give explicit consideration to the kind of world that is being created for the children who will be growing up in these settings. Particular attention should be given to the opportunities which the environment presents or precludes for involvement of children with persons both older and younger than themselves.”
    —Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
