Adult Leaves

Famous quotes containing the words adult and/or leaves:

    The confusion of emotions with behavior causes no end of unnecessary trouble to both adults and children. Behavior can be commanded; emotions can’t. An adult can put controls on a child’s behavior—at least part of the time—but how do you put controls on what a child feels? An adult can impose controls on his own behavior—if he’s grown up—but how does he order what he feels?
    Leontine Young (20th century)

    [Property] embraces everything to which a man may attach value and have a right, and which leaves to everyone else the like advantage.
    James Madison (1751–1836)
