Famous quotes containing the words models and/or country:

    “... your problem is your role models were models.”
    —Jane Wagner (b. 1935)

    “The country is fed up with children and their problems. For the first time in history, the differences in outlook between people raising children and those who are not are beginning to assume some political significance. This difference is already a part of the conflicts in local school politics. It may spread to other levels of government. Society has less time for the concerns of those who raise the young or try to teach them.”
    —Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
