“Children who are not encouraged to do, to try, to explore, to master, and to risk failure, often feel helpless and inadequate. Over-controlled by anxious, fearful parents, these children often become anxious and fearful themselves. This makes it difficult for them to mature. Many never outgrow the need for ongoing parental guidance and control. As a result, their parents continue to invade, manipulate, and frequently dominate their lives.” NeedsFeelsTryingChildrenParentDifficultResultsRiskMastersGuidanceMatureControlledAnxiousFearfulHelplessManipulateOngoingInadequateParentalParental Guidance Author:Susan Forward
“Truly color is vice! Of course, it can be, and has the right to be one of the finest virtues. Controlled by the strong hand and careful guidance of her Master drawing, color is a splendid Mistress, with a mate worthy of herself, her lover, but her Master likewise, the most magnificent Mistress possible, and the result is evident in all the glorious things that spring from their union.” HandsCoursesStrongResultsVirtueColorMastersLoversSpringUnionsVicesCarefulWorthyDrawingGuidanceGloriousControlledMatesMagnificentFinestEvidentMistressSplendidStrong Hands Author:James Whistler
“During the last quarter of a century all the authority associated with the function of spiritual guidance ... has seeped down into the lowest publications. ... Between a poem by Valéry and an advertisement for a beauty cream promising a rich marriage to anyone who used it there was at no point a breach of continuity. So as a result of literature's spiritual usurpation a beauty cream advertisement possessed, in the eyes of little village girls, the authority that was formerly attached to the words of priests.” LittlesEyeLastsSpiritualUsedGirlLiteratureResultsRichCenturyAuthorityFunctionGuidancePriestsVillageQuartersPossessedCreamLowestNo PointContinuityPublicationAdvertisementsBreachUsurpationSpiritual GuidanceQuarter Of A Century Author:Simone Weil
“After careful consideration, we have decided that for our next fiscal year, we'll issue guidance on comparable store used unit sales and on earnings per share only for the full fiscal year. We will no longer issue quarterly guidance. This decision reflects our continuing focus on longer-term store, sales, and earnings growth and on return on invested capital, and our recognition that the performance in shorter-term periods can be more volatile than over the longer term. As we report our quarterly results, we plan to comment on how our performance is tracking against our annual guidance.” YearsUsedNextGrowthTermDecisionResultsIssuesFocusPlansShareReturnPeriodsDecidedPerformancesCarefulStoresRecognitionGuidanceReportsConsiderationCommentContinuingUnitsEarningAnnualsTracking Author:Austin Ligon
“One of the tragedies of our day is that too many boys are growing up without guidance of a father, or another man, to show them what it looks like to do away with that boyhood stuff. As a result, they often move into adolescence and then adulthood looking like men but still speaking, reasoning, and behaving like boys.” MenLooksStillsShowsMovingFatherStuffResultsBoysGrowing UpGrowingTragedyGuidanceReasoningAdulthoodAdolescenceAnother ManBoyhoodLike A Boy Author:Dennis Rainey
“Whatever does not spring from a man's free choice, or is only the result of instruction and guidance, does not enter into his very being, but still remains alien to his true nature; he does not perform it with truly human energies, but merely with mechanical exactness.” MenHumansDoeStillsChoicesEnergyResultsSpringRemainsAliensGuidanceInstructionTrue NatureFree ChoiceExactness Author:Wilhelm von Humboldt
