Famous Quotes - FW: Adolescence

The invention of the teenager was a mistake, in Miss Manners' opinion . . . . Once you identify a period of life in which people have few restrictions and, at the same time, few responsibilities -- they get to stay out late but don't have to pay taxes -- naturally, nobody wants to live any other way. -- Judith Martin No man knows his true character until he has run out of gas, purchased something on the installment plan, and raised an adolescent. -- Marcelene Cox Bringing up teenagers is like sweeping back ocean waves with a frazzled broom -- the inundation of outside influences never stops. Whatever the lure -- cars, easy money, cigarettes, drugs, booze, sex, crime -- much that glitters along the shore has a thousand times the appeal of a parent's lecture. -- Mary Ellen Snodgrass

"I have the audacity to believe that people everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their spirits. I believe that what self-centered men have torn down, other-centered men can build up." {Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.}
