Swan/behavior

Famous quotes containing the words swan and/or behavior:

This little moment mercifully gave,
Where I have seen across the twilight wave
The swan sail with her young beneath her wings.”

“Children can’t make their own rules and no child is happy without them. The great need of the young is for authority that protects them against the consequences of their own primitive passions and their lack of experience, that provides with guides for everyday behavior and that builds some solid ground they can stand on for the future.”
—Leontine Young (20th century)
