Women never have young minds. They are born three thousand years old. ~ Shelagh Delaney
Young Minds quotes by Shelagh Delaney
In 1970, Dean Robert Ebert offered me the Chair of Pathology at Harvard Medical School. I moved to Harvard because I missed the university environment and, more particularly, the stimulating interaction with the eager, enthusiastic, and unprejudiced young minds of the students and fellows. ~ Baruj Benacerraf
Young Minds quotes by Baruj Benacerraf
Among other pleasing errors of young minds is the opinion of their own importance. He that has not yet remarked, how little attention his contemporaries can spare from themselves, conceives all eyes turned upon himself, and imagines everyone that approaches him to be an enemy or a follower, an admirer or a spy. ~ Samuel Johnson
Young Minds quotes by Samuel Johnson
Now this is a most satisfactory and important thing to think about, for brutality will not, - cannot, - accomplish what a kindly disposition will; and, if folks could only know how quickly a "balky" child will, through loving and cuddling, grow into a charming, happy youth, much childish gloom and sorrow would vanish; for a man or woman who is ugly to a child is too low to rank as highly as a wild animal; for no animal will stand, for an instant, anything approaching an attack, or any form of harm to its young. But what a lot of tots find slaps, yanks and hard words for conditions which do not call for such harsh tactics! No child is naturally ugly or "cranky." And big, gulping sobs, or sad, unhappy young minds, in a tiny body should not occur in any community of civilization. Adulthood holds many an opportunity for such conditions. Childhood should not. ~ Ernest Vincent Wright
Young Minds quotes by Ernest Vincent Wright
No greater place to be than in a leadership position to lead young minds to prosperity ~ Darrius Garrett
Young Minds quotes by Darrius Garrett
What is admirable in the clash of young minds is that no one can foresee the spark that sets off an explosion or predict what kind of explosion it will be. ~ Victor Hugo
Young Minds quotes by Victor Hugo
The purpose of education is turn inquisitive young minds into rule-followers ~ U.S. Dept. Of Fear
Young Minds quotes by U.S. Dept. Of Fear
Thinking critically is a chore. It does not come naturally or easily. And if the fruits of such efforts are not carefully displayed to young minds, then they will not harvest them. Every school child must be implanted with the wonder of the atom, not the thrall of magic. ~ Perry DeAngelis
Young Minds quotes by Perry DeAngelis
He could feel himself gliding down like the sail of a weightless craft, forever plunging into the great beyond below where mermaids sing and summon their lovers home, further down into the depths of some complacent serenity, further down where thoughts float away and never return and the lightness is so grand that there is no other worldly place imaginable, for there is no world left to be
considered. There is only the soul, free from the prison of the body, and it is released to travel
another millennium through time, carrying with it the progress and industry gathered from the
mind previously occupied. ~ Matthew Chase Stroud
Young Minds quotes by Matthew Chase Stroud
Attempts to defend amusement parks and circuses on the grounds that they 'educate' people about animals should not be taken seriously. Such enterprises are part of the commercial entertainment industry. The most important lesson they teach impressionable young minds is that it is acceptable to keep animals in captivity for human amusement. ~ Peter Singer
Young Minds quotes by Peter Singer
The Internet plays an ever more significant role in the sedulous promotion of terrorism. We know that in the U.K., groups gather to view the preaching of violent men located many thousands of miles away and that this does have a powerful effect on young minds. ~ Pauline Neville-Jones
Young Minds quotes by Pauline Neville-Jones
This conference on religious education seems to your humble servant the last word in absurdity. We are told by a delightful 'expert' that we ought not really teach our children about God lest we rob them of the opportunity of making their own discovery of God, and lest we corrupt their young minds by our own superstitions. If we continue along these lines the day will come when some expert will advise us not to teach our children the English language, since we rob them thereby of the possibility of choosing the German, French or Japanese languages as possible alternatives. Don't these good people realize that they are reducing the principle of freedom to an absurdity? ~ Reinhold Niebuhr
Young Minds quotes by Reinhold Niebuhr
I come from classical theater training and when I went to college it was a bunch of kids that were hand-picked from around the world. I was around such brilliant young minds and incredible artists with incredible teachers. ~ Joe Manganiello
Young Minds quotes by Joe Manganiello
NO error is infused into the young mind, to lie there dormant, or to be reproduced only when the subject of thought or action recurs to which the error belongs; but the error becomes a model or archetype, after whose likeness the active powers of the mind create a thousand other errors. ~ Horace Mann
Young Minds quotes by Horace Mann
Things were changing; I was changing. All swelling limbs and sweating brain, suddenly I had more body than I knew what to do with. Arms and legs became the prey of low desktops and narrow corridors, were ambushed by sharp corners. Mr Baxter ignored my plight. Bodies were inimical to mathematics, or so we were led to believe. Bad hair, acrid breath, lumpy skin, all vanished for an hour every Tuesday and Thursday. Young minds in the buff soared into the sphere of pure reason. Pages turned to parallelograms; cities, circumferences; recipes, ratios. Shorn of our bearings, we groped our way around in this rarefied air. ~ Daniel Tammet
Young Minds quotes by Daniel Tammet
Congress should fund research on the effects that violent video games have on young minds ... We don't benefit from ignorance. We don't benefit from not knowing the science. ~ Barack Obama
Young Minds quotes by Barack Obama
When you're very young, images that you upload into your very young mind tend to stay with you. ~ Henry Rollins
Young Minds quotes by Henry Rollins
If we really saw war, what war does to young minds and bodies, it would be impossible to embrace the myth of war. If we had to stand over the mangled corpses of schoolchildren killed in Afghanistan and listen to the wails of their parents, we would not be able to repeat clichés we use to justify war. This is why war is carefully sanitized. This is why we are given war's perverse and dark thrill but are spared from seeing war's consequences. The mythic visions of war keep it heroic and entertaining…

The wounded, the crippled, and the dead are, in this great charade, swiftly carted offstage. They are war's refuse. We do not see them. We do not hear them. They are doomed, like wandering spirits, to float around the edges of our consciousness, ignored, even reviled. The message they tell is too painful for us to hear. We prefer to celebrate ourselves and our nation by imbibing the myths of glory, honor, patriotism, and heroism, words that in combat become empty and meaningless. ~ Chris Hedges
Young Minds quotes by Chris Hedges
The newspaper articles that Joe had read about the upcoming Senate investigation into comic books always cited "escapism" among the litany of injurious consequences of their reading, and dwelled on the pernicious effect, on young minds, of satisfying the desire to escape. As if there could be any more noble or necessary service in life. ~ Michael Chabon
Young Minds quotes by Michael Chabon
No Mr. West, it was not a choice
New children's chapter book disputes the notion that 400 years of slavery was a result of "mental imprisonment"

Cleveland, OH, - .In the words of the great Stan Lee, "With great power, comes great responsibility." When icons make erroneous statements, often they do so with out recognizing the long reaching effects their thoughtless statements may have. When Kanye West made his very controversial statements regarding slavery, describing it as a choice, an entire generation of young minds were watching and absorbing as inaccurate picture of history was painted for them and presented as fact. Author Michelle Person, former teacher, elementary school principal, and founder of Just Like Me Books (JLM) could not stand by and allow that fallacy to linger unchecked. Committed to promoting a love of reading and increasing literacy rates among high risk readers through an interactive platform that prominently features characters of color, JLM's newest release Leaders of the Revolution tells the story of Toussaint L'Ouverture and the first successful slave uprising in the western world.

The third book in the Nathaniel English series, aimed at children ages 6-11, follows 5th grade Nathaniel as he searches for solutions to his present day problems by learning about important historical figures of the past. Thanks to his mother's extensive at home library, Nathaniel is exposed to information that his teachers don't share, helpin ~ Michelle Person
Young Minds quotes by Michelle Person
Arts education is a big part of building a 21st century creative mind, and I think that we have let way too many kids lose their way by not drawing in their young minds with music, dance, painting and the other various ways we can express those things we do not have words for. ~ Heather Watts
Young Minds quotes by Heather Watts
Ut it's one of the reflections of our times. Young minds today are dulled by television and other visual sensations. When reading was one of the few pleasures available, we could recite whole passages to eachother. ~ Gloria Naylor
Young Minds quotes by Gloria Naylor
Good books are to the young mind what the warming sun and the refreshing rain of spring are to the seeds which have lain dormant in the frosts of winter. They are more, for they may save from that which is worse than death, as well as bless with that which is better than life. ~ Horace Mann
Young Minds quotes by Horace Mann
[Comics] were viewed as the literary equivalent of bubblegum cards, meant to be poked into the spokes of a young mind where they would produce a satisfying but entirely bogus rumble of pleasure. ~ Michael Chabon
Young Minds quotes by Michael Chabon
Put the money into schools. Rational ones that train young minds to think, to demand that persons in authority show the evidence for the ideas they push. Do that, and we won't need to provide a world for the Sacred Brethren who, given the opportunity, would run everyone else off the planet. ~ Jack McDevitt
Young Minds quotes by Jack McDevitt
The young mind is pliable and imitates, but in more advanced states grows rigid and must be warmed and softened before it will receive a deep impression. ~ Joshua Reynolds
Young Minds quotes by Joshua Reynolds
I grew up in a Jewish family, and we have raised our children in a Jewish tradition. Religion gives a framework for moral enquiry in young minds and points us to questions beyond the material. ~ Michael Sandel
Young Minds quotes by Michael Sandel
Education is free. Though the education I refer to is not confined to a stuffy old building that still manages to retain its charm – don't get me wrong, I love my school – but it's out there in the real world. Waiting to be experienced. Waiting for the curious young minds of tomorrow to free themselves from the shackles of ignorance and transcend above everyday like-minded thoughts and uncover the mysteries of tomorrow. ~ Anika De Souza
Young Minds quotes by Anika De Souza
Clearly this business of treating minds, particularly this big business of treating young minds, has not policed itself, and has no incentive to put a stop to the kinds of fraudulent and unethical practices that are going on. ~ Patricia Schroeder
Young Minds quotes by Patricia Schroeder
There is something so amiable in the prejudices of a young mind, that one is sorry to see them give way to the reception of more general opinions. ~ Jane Austen
Young Minds quotes by Jane Austen
Education is all about igniting young minds and enabling them to attain their fullest potential. ~ Nita Ambani
Young Minds quotes by Nita Ambani
Why did Ted Geisel end up writing and illustrating for young minds? He has specific imagery in the book, and we never would have moved beyond the discussion phase, if we couldn't have found an expression for The Lorax, dimensionally, that was true to the soul of what comes through in his simple line drawings, on the page. ~ Christopher Meledandri
Young Minds quotes by Christopher Meledandri
Teachers who help to open young minds perform a duty which is as near sacred as I will admit. ~ Richard Dawkins
Young Minds quotes by Richard Dawkins
In our young minds houses belonged to women were their special domain, not as property, but as places where all that truly mattered in life took place - the warmth and comfort of shelter, the feeding of our bodies, the nurturing of our souls. There we learned dignity, integrity of being; there we learned to have faith. The folks who made this life possible, who were our primary guides and teachers, were black women. ~ Bell Hooks
Young Minds quotes by Bell Hooks
To die old with a young mind is such a tragedy. Naiveness was never a blessing. ~ Shannon L. Alder
Young Minds quotes by Shannon L. Alder
If Hip Hop has the ability to corrupt young minds, it also has the ability to Uplift them. ~ KRS-One
Young Minds quotes by KRS-One
Knowledge flourishes where words of eminent men empower the cognition of young minds with enlightenment. ~ Stephen TSJ
Young Minds quotes by Stephen TSJ
We need to stop excusing mediocre and downright pernicious art, stop 'taking it for what it's worth' as we take our fast foods, our overpriced cars that are no good, the overpriced houses we spend all our lives fixing, our television programs, our schools thrown up like barricades in the way of young minds, our brainless fat religions, our poisonous air, our incredible cult of sports, and our ritual of fornicating with all pretty or even horse-faced strangers. We would not put up with a debauched king, but in a democracy all of us are kings, and we praise debauchery as pluralism. This book is of course no condemnation of pluralism; but it is true that art is in one sense fascistic: it claims, on good authority, that some things are healthy for individuals and society and some things are not. ~ John Gardner
Young Minds quotes by John Gardner
If you have been touched by the success fairy, people think you know why. People think success breeds enlightenment and you are duty-bound to spread around like manure. Fertilize those young minds! ~ Meryl Streep
Young Minds quotes by Meryl Streep
She saw our young minds as bright, spiky sunflowers in need of light, and arranged us as close to the TV as possible to maximize our exposure. ~ Junot Diaz
Young Minds quotes by Junot Diaz
The jostling of young minds against each other has this wonderful attribute that one can never foresee the spark, nor predict the flash. What will spring up in a moment? Nobody knows. A burst of laughter starts from a scene of emotion. In a moment of buffoonery, the serious enters. Impulses depend on a chance word. The spirit of each is sovereign. A jest suffices to open the door to the unexpected. They are conferences with sharp turns, where the perspective suddenly changes. Chance is the director of these conversations. ~ Victor Hugo
Young Minds quotes by Victor Hugo
I like teaching and the contact with young minds keeps one on one's toes. ~ Aaron Klug
Young Minds quotes by Aaron Klug
[There are] games children must conjure up to combat an awful fact of childhood: the fact of their vulnerability to fear, anger, hate and frustration - all the emotions that are an ordinary part of their lives and that they can perceive only as as ungovernable and dangerous forces. To master these forces, children turn to fantasy: that imagined world where disturbing emotional situations are solved to their satisfaction. ~ Maurice Sendak
Young Minds quotes by Maurice Sendak
Israel will never get true security and safety through oppressing another people. A true peace can ultimately be built only on justice. We condemn the violence of suicide bombers, and we condemn the corruption of young minds taught hatred; but we also condemn the violence of military incursions in the occupied lands, and the inhumanity that won't let ambulances reach the injured. ~ Desmond Tutu
Young Minds quotes by Desmond Tutu
Books change us. They excite us, they compel us to question, to fight, to believe in the possibility of the improbable; they are the wombs of young minds, the incubators of creativity. ~ T.S. Tate
Young Minds quotes by T.S. Tate
Old man with a young mind is much younger than the young man with an old mind! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Young Minds quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
Our future depends on stories. As the world advances, literature has the ability to ground us - in our humanness, our imaginations, and our enlightenment. ~ Pawan Mishra
Young Minds quotes by Pawan Mishra
Does everyone feel this way? When I was young, I was perpetually overconfident or insecure. Either I felt completely useless, unattractive, and worthless, or that I was pretty much a success, and everything I did was bound to succeed. When I was confident, I could overcome the hardest challenges. But all it took was the smallest setback for me to be sure that I was utterly worthless. Regaining my self-confidence had nothing to do with success ... whether I experienced it as a failure or triumph was utterly dependent on my mood. ~ Bernhard Schlink
Young Minds quotes by Bernhard Schlink
If I make a change to a young kid to play any sport, not only tennis, instead of spending time in front of the TV or computer, that is good. I want to give them a good example: 'Hey, go out and play and see the world.' ~ Ana Ivanovic
Young Minds quotes by Ana Ivanovic
Sometimes I just needed to talk about it, even though it singed like touching the end of a match. I just needed to feel that pain for a moment, to know that it was real. It was my pain. I had earned it by living through it. ~ Shelly Crane
Young Minds quotes by Shelly Crane
When you're young, you're very insecure. And if I could learn, if I could revisit my own past I could say to myself, don't think too much, just get on and do it. ~ Anthony Hopkins
Young Minds quotes by Anthony Hopkins
One woman sent me on a letter written to her by her daughter, and the young girl's words are a remarkable statement about artistic creation as an infinitely versatile and subtle form of communication:
'...How many words does a person know?' she asks her mother. 'How many does he use in his everyday vocabulary? One hundred, two, three? We wrap our feelings up in words, try to express in words sorrow and joy and any sort of emotion, the very things that can't in fact be expressed. Romeo uttered beautiful words to Juliet, vivid, expressive words, but they surely didn't say even half of what made his heart feel as if it was ready to jump out of his chest, and stopped him breathing, and made Juliet forget everything except her love?
There's another kind of language, another form of communication: by means of feeling, and images. That is the contact that stops people being separated from each other, that brings down barriers. Will, feeling, emotion - these remove obstacles from between people who otherwise stand on opposite sides of a mirror, on opposite sides of a door.. The frames of the screen move out, and the world which used to be partitioned off comes into us, becomes something real... And this doesn't happen through little Audrey, it's Tarkovsky himself addressing the audience directly, as they sit on the other side of the screen. There's no death, there is immortality. Time is one and undivided, as it says in one of the poems. "At the table are great-grandfathers ~ Andrei Tarkovsky
Young Minds quotes by Andrei Tarkovsky
When the young woman
leans over the sky,
about to water the flowers as well as the weeds,
her white front splits open
until her milk runs. ~ Gunter Grass
Young Minds quotes by Gunter Grass
You would think after numerous attacks of grief the human body would be unable to process any more sadness. But our hearts have an annoying amount of endurance. ~ Samantha Young
Young Minds quotes by Samantha Young
Maybe we were mad that day. Maybe some of the things that seemed to happen didn't really happen at all. Maybe many of the things that seemed to happen in the days and weeks that followed didn't really happen. Maybe it was all because we were young, and because being young is like being mad. Maybe just being human, at any age, is a bit like being mad.
But maybe the best things that we do, and the best things that we are, come from madness. ~ David Almond
Young Minds quotes by David Almond
If that guy had defended Pontius Pilate, he would have convinced the jury that he was simply assisting a young carpenter who wanted to buy some nails for a cross he was working on. ~ Jeffrey Archer
Young Minds quotes by Jeffrey Archer
What the fuck do you know about young women, Maggie thinks. We don't remember what we want to remember. We remember what we can't forget. ~ Lisa Taddeo
Young Minds quotes by Lisa Taddeo
Given the choice between fulfilling love and a washing machine, young people in the U.S. and the Soviet Union both chose the washing machine. ~ Kristin Ross
Young Minds quotes by Kristin Ross
It always puzzled Billy that so many of his most fond and formative memories took place in winter. The fact was that he never liked this season, except as a young child when falling white flakes were magical, and the sun on the snow-covered baseball fields in the park was the color of light through quartz. ~ Jim Carroll
Young Minds quotes by Jim Carroll
Writers' trousers are famously unpredictable in many ways, but I haven't met another author whose trousers simply disintegrated en route to a reading. There I was, young and nervous and not wearing a frock due to poor body image issues, stuck on a late afternoon train, leafing through my notes in a preparatory way and yet also feeling, somehow, chilly. ~ A. L. Kennedy
Young Minds quotes by A. L. Kennedy
Young people need plenty of difficulties to achieve something ... If you receive a little money for this, a little money for that, everything becomes mediocre, and collapses ignominiously. ~ Salvador Dali
Young Minds quotes by Salvador Dali
Prepare for Success. Feel the satisfaction and power of having your act together! Get organized beforehand to get better results. Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance. ~ Susan C. Young
Young Minds quotes by Susan C. Young
She would see it as betrayal. Nothing more. Nothing less. ~ Samantha Young
Young Minds quotes by Samantha Young
Just like when you're young and in love, a seven-hour plane ride can seem like a lifetime. ~ Jennifer E. Smith
Young Minds quotes by Jennifer E. Smith
She comes from the Midwest. She had me at a very young age and raised me on her own. She's a very hard worker. ~ Lara Flynn Boyle
Young Minds quotes by Lara Flynn Boyle
Researchers find it very necessary to keep blinkers on. They don't want to admit that the animals they are working with have feelings. They don't want to admit that they might have minds and personalities because that would make it quite difficult for them to do what they do; so we find that within the lab communities there is a very strong resistance among the researchers to admitting that animals have minds, personalities and feelings. ~ Jane Goodall
Young Minds quotes by Jane Goodall
There are quite a lot of YouTube clips of me that have gone viral. One that I think of is of a young woman at a lecture I was giving - she came from Liberty University, which is a ludicrous religious institution. She said, 'What if you are wrong?' and I answered that rather briefly, and that's gone viral. ~ Richard Dawkins
Young Minds quotes by Richard Dawkins
Where rejection is present with neurotic anxiety, we found a certain constellation always present: The rejection was never accepted as an objective fact, but was held in juxtaposition with idealized expectations about the parent. The young woman was unable to appraise the parent realistically, but always confused the reality situation with expectations of what the parent should have been or might yet become. ~ Rollo May
Young Minds quotes by Rollo May
I think a lot of young women are probably fearful or embarrassed or cautious or hiding whatever their particular sexuality might be. From the most odd to the just slightly abberrant. ~ Steven Shainberg
Young Minds quotes by Steven Shainberg
A lot of young girls together is a romantic secret thing like the first sight of wild ducks at dawn. ~ F Scott Fitzgerald
Young Minds quotes by F Scott Fitzgerald
So we have twenty-four hours to keep out of trouble,' he says to me.
I slide a glance in his direction. Judging from the way he's now grimacing at the sidewalk and the fact that I met him in a police station where he was being booked for stealing a car, I'm guessing that staying out of trouble is not his forte. ~ Sarah Alderson
Young Minds quotes by Sarah Alderson
As in our lives so also in our studies, it is most becoming and most wise, so to temper gravity with cheerfulness, that the former may not imbue our minds with melancholy, nor the latter degenerate into licentiousness. ~ Pliny The Elder
Young Minds quotes by Pliny The Elder
Perhaps, after all, we aren't divided so much into mind and body as into mind and mind. And few forces can propel humanity forward more reliably than the cleaving together of kindred minds in solidarity to a shared truth. ~ Maria Popova
Young Minds quotes by Maria Popova
I'm an active and involved senator. It's very difficult to do the job I want to do and spend as much time as I want with my kids ... It is time for me to be a father first to them, and I realize as I watch them grow and become young adults that I won't be able to get this time back. ~ Robert J. Garagiola
Young Minds quotes by Robert J. Garagiola
What I would say to young entrepreneurs is there's so many moments in your life where you have these dreams, and people are trying to protect you, and they say, perhaps, friends, family, parents sometimes, they don't agree with it, they think, 'This is just too high of a hurdle.' And I don't agree with that. ~ Howard Schultz
Young Minds quotes by Howard Schultz
Democracy can only spring from practising it early, and democratic action was not to expected from young people brought up under a close authoritarian system. ~ Dora Russell
Young Minds quotes by Dora Russell
A book is something that young readers can experience on their own time. They decide when to turn the page. They'll put their arm right on the page so you can't turn it because they're not ready to go to the next page yet. They just want to look at it again, or they want to read the book over and over because they really enjoy setting the pace themselves. ~ Jan Brett
Young Minds quotes by Jan Brett
I feel like I'm making a difference. I feel like putting out a message for young girls to follow your dreams and just work at what you want to do and be yourself. ~ Willow Smith
Young Minds quotes by Willow Smith
Keep your mind young by continuing to learn about your business. ~ Frank Bettger
Young Minds quotes by Frank Bettger
I picked up my camera and held it at arm's length and took a picture of myself not caring. I called it: Glory Doesn't Care. ~ A.S. King
Young Minds quotes by A.S. King
