    If an angel were ever to tell us anything of his philosophy I believe many propositions would sound like 2 times 2 equals 13.

    A book is quite a beautiful thing, even more so learning. Together, however, all they amount to is called book-learning.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    Americans have internalized the value that mothers of young children should be mothers first and foremost, and not paid workers. The result is that a substantial amount of confusion, ambivalence, guilt, and anxiety is experienced by working mothers. Our cultural expectations of mother and realities of female participation in the labor force are directly contradictory.
    Ruth E. Zambrana, U.S. researcher, M. Hurst, and R.L. Hite. “The Working Mother in Contemporary Perspectives: A Review of Literature,” Pediatrics (December 1979)
