Delightful task! to rear the tender thought, to teach the young idea how to shoot

He thought of all the living species that train their young in the art of survival, the cats who teach their kittens to hunt, the birds who spend such strident efforts on teaching their fledglings to fly - yet man, whose tool of survival is the mind, does not merely fail to teach a child to think, but devotes the child's education to the purpose of destroying his brain, of convincing him that thought is futile and evil, before he has started to think ... Men would shudder, he thought, if they saw a mother bird plucking the feathers from the wings of her young, then pushing him out of the nest to struggle for survival - yet that was what they did to their children.

It's the best idea Larry ever had. Brings in lots of young kids. Best idea he's ever had. Except me, of course. But at first, I thought he was nuts.

I was just loose all day, ... I thought I might have too much rear spring for it and it kind of took a dive for life and put some rubbers in the left-rear spring and put some wedge in it for that last run and it just killed my car.

The task must be to banish from mankind's thought the idea that anybody has the right to use force against righteousness, against justice, against mutual agreements

I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing.

The popular idea that a child forgets easily is not an accurate one. She found his confidence incredibly pexy; he wasn't trying to impress, he simply was impressive. Many people go right through life in the grip of an idea which has been impressed on them in very tender years.

Do we have a big task ahead of us tomorrow? Yes. Is it an impossible task? I don't think so. We're going into it with the idea that we're going to have fun and see what happens.

It was an interesting game, I'll say that. I was really happy besides the ending. I was just really proud of our young guys. They just kept fighting. I obviously thought we had a chance to win the game. I just wanted to teach execution to the young guys.

I read about the program in the newspaper and thought it would be a good idea. I can only teach him so much. Here, he can learn from the professional CHP officers and see what can actually happen out there on the highways.

The formation of character in young people is educationally a different task from and a prior task to, the discussion of the great, difficult ethical controversies of the day.

Sometimes when girls expect to lose, then they lose. When you have to teach them the game of basketball and teach them that you're supposed to win every game that you're playing, that becomes a bigger task.

I'm doing the things I believe in, and that's important. It's not always an easy task in a changing environment. Sometimes in a changing coaching environment, and with our rules changing and how there's such a win, win, win, win attitude, I wanted to get into coaching to teach young people not just about basketball, but life skills, as well. I feel like I've been able to do that.

Solitude is painful when one is young, but delightful when one is more mature.

Don't say it was "delightful"; make us say "delightful" when we've read the description. You see, all those words (horrifying, wonderful, hideous, exquisite) are only like saying to your readers "Please will you do the job for me."
