Famous quotes containing the words julia and/or child:
“Nothing natural can be wholly unworthy.”
—Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
“For me, the child is a veritable image of becoming, of possibility, poised to reach towards what is not yet, towards a growing that cannot be predetermined or prescribed. I see her and I fill the space with others like her, risking, straining, wanting to find out, to ask their own questions, to experience a world that is shared.”
—Maxine Greene (20th century)
