Famous quotes containing the words pillars and/or rewards:
“The spirit of truth and the spirit of freedom—these are the pillars of society.”
—Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
“Perhaps a modern society can remain stable only by eliminating adolescence, by giving its young, from the age of ten, the skills, responsibilities, and rewards of grownups, and opportunities for action in all spheres of life. Adolescence should be a time of useful action, while book learning and scholarship should be a preoccupation of adults.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
