Involving Brilliant Kid

Famous quotes containing the words involving, brilliant and/or kid:

    What causes adolescents to rebel is not the assertion of authority but the arbitrary use of power, with little explanation of the rules and no involvement in decision-making. . . . Involving the adolescent in decisions doesn’t mean that you are giving up your authority. It means acknowledging that the teenager is growing up and has the right to participate in decisions that affect his or her life.
    Laurence Steinberg (20th century)

    O brilliant kids, frisk with your dog,
    Fondle your shells and sticks, bleached
    By time and the elements; but there is a line
    You must not cross
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    I close my eyes and suck you in like a fire.
    I grow. I grow. I’m fattening out.
    I’m a kid in a rowboat and you’re the sea,
    the salt, you’re every fish of importance.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
