Famous quotes containing the words critical, essays and/or bowen:

    “Much of what contrives to create critical moments in parenting stems from a fundamental misunderstanding as to what the child is capable of at any given age. If a parent misjudges a child’s limitations as well as his own abilities, the potential exists for unreasonable expectations, frustration, disappointment and an unrealistic belief that what the child really needs is to be punished.”
    —Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    “If these Essays were worthy of being judged, it might fall out, in my opinion, that they would not find much favour, either with common and vulgar minds, or with uncommon and eminent ones: the former would not find enough in them, the latter would find too much; they might manage to live somewhere in the middle region.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “[My early stories] are the work of a living writer whom I know in a sense, but can never meet.”
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
