Famous quotes containing the words silent and/or received:
“Even the ignorant may appear very worthy,
If they keep silent before the learned.”
—Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)
“Many more children observe attitudes, values and ways different from or in conflict with those of their families, social networks, and institutions. Yet today’s young people are no more mature or capable of handling the increased conflicting and often stimulating information they receive than were young people of the past, who received the information and had more adult control of and advice about the information they did receive.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
