Famous quotes containing the words berkeley, school and/or law:

    I had rather be an oyster than a man, the most stupid and senseless of animals.
    —George Berkeley (1685–1753)

    Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.
    Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)

    There’s no law against taking off a spaceship. It’s never been done so they haven’t gotten around to prohibiting it.
    Rip Van Ronkel, and Robert A. Heinlein (1907–1988)
