“We do not wish incorrect and unsound doctrines to be handed down to posterity under the sanction of great names, to be received and valued by future generations as authentic and reliable, ... Errors in history and doctrine, if left uncorrected by us who are conversant with the events, and who are in a position to judge of the truth or falsity of the doctrines, would go to our children as though we had sanctioned and endorsed them.” IfsChildrenNamesLeftWishGenerationsEventsPositionJudgingOur ChildrenErrorsDoctrineFuture GenerationPosteritySanctionsFalsity Author:Brigham Young

“We live in an enlightened age, however, an age that has learned to see and to value other living things as they are, not as we wish them to be.

“There are three distinct kind of judges upon all new authors or productions; the first are those who know no rules, but pronounce entirely from their natural taste and feelings; the second are those who know and judge by rules; and the third are those who know, but are above the rules. These last are those you should wish to satisfy. Next to them rate the natural judges; but ever despise those opinions that are formed by the rules.” KnowsShouldWritingFirstsKindFeelingsLastsThreeNextWishNaturalOpinionJudgingTasteThirdsRateProductionsDespise Book:The critical opinions of Samuel Johnson Source: The critical opinions of Samuel Johnson
“We do not wish to "judge" or assess out surrounding merely as a kind of expressive activity carelessly projected onto the world, but we wish to evaluate the world "correctly," i.e., in according with that it truly is, and the desire to know is directed at determining what the world truly is.” KnowsWorldKindDesireWishJudgingActivityEvaluateExpressive Author:Raymond Geuss

“The desire of excellence is the necessary attribute of those who excel. We work little for a thing unless we wish for it. But we cannot of ourselves estimate the degree of our success in what we strive for; that task is left to others. With the desire for excellence comes, therefore, the desire for approbation. And this distinguishes intellectual excellence from moral excellence; for the latter has no necessity of human tribunal; it is more inclined to shrink from the public than to invite the public to be its judge.” HumansLittlesDesireLeftWishMoralJudgingDegreesIntellectualTasksExcellenceStriveLatterAttributesInvitesShrinksTribunalsMoral Excellence Author:Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton

“If we view our children as stupid, naughty, disturbed, or guilty of their misdeeds, they will learn to behold themselves as foolish, faulty, or shameful specimens of humanity. They will regard us as judges from whom they wish to hide, and they will interpret everything we say as further proof of their unworthiness. If we view them as innocent, or at least merely ignorant, they will gain understanding from their experiences, and they will continue to regard us as wise partners.” IfsChildrenHumanityWishUnderstandingViewsWiseStupidJudgingGainsRegardOur ChildrenProofPartnersFoolishIgnorantInnocentGuiltyDisturbedShamefulNaughtyMisdeeds Book:Whole child, whole parent Source: Whole child, whole parent
