“It is a libel to suggest that children need rewards for attending to tasks, apart from intrinsic interest and satisfaction. Children work very hard in their purposeful endeavors in the world, when they have ends they want to accomplish themselves. It is meaningless teaching, not learning, that demands irrelevant incentives.” WorldWantNeedsChildrenEndsHardInterestTeachingDemandTasksRewardsSatisfactionAccomplishEndeavorMeaninglessIrrelevantIncentivesAttendingLibel Author:Frank Smith
“No ordinary work done by a man is either as hard or as responsible as the work of a woman who is bringing up a family of small children; for upon her time and strength demands are made not only every hour of the day but often every hour of the night.” MenChildrenMadeHardDoneNightHoursMomDemandOrdinaryResponsibleEulogySingle MomSmall ChildWork Done Book:Works Source: Works

“No attempt of any kind must be made at rescuing members of ships sunk, and this includes picking up persons in the water and putting them in lifeboats, righting capsized lifeboats, and handing over food and water. Rescue runs counter to the most primitive demands of warfare for the destruction of enemy ships and crews. Be hard, remember that the enemy has no regard for women and children when he bombs German cities.” KindChildrenPersonsMadeHardRunningRememberWaterCitiesEnemyDemandMembersDestructionRegardShipsBombsRescuePrimitiveWarfareCrewLifeboatsHanding Over Author:Karl Donitz
