A Leg to Stand On Quotes

“If we have youth, beauty, strength, and talent, if we find fame, fortune, favour, and contentment, it is easy to be kind, and to meet the world with a kind heart. But let us only lose favor, and beauty, and strength, and health; let us find ourselves sick, unhappy, and without apparent hope of recovery; Only then will our stamina and moral character be tested to the limit.”

“What children want is to be observed while engaged, they do not want the focus of the observation to be on the final product.

The child wants this observation. We all want this.”
