Famous quotes containing the words literary, devices and/or innovations:
“Every literary critic believes he will outwit history and have the last word.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The relationship between mother and professional has not been a partnership in which both work together on behalf of the child, in which the expert helps the mother achieve her own goals for her child. Instead, professionals often behave as if they alone are advocates for the child; as if they are the guardians of the child’s needs; as if the mother left to her own devices will surely damage the child and only the professional can rescue him.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
“Great innovations should not be forced on slender majorities.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
