Re: Who said...? [Julia's inquiry]



Julia Presley inquired about 3 quotations:
> "Children have never been very good at listening to their elders,
> but they have never failed to imitate them."
James (Arthur) Baldwin, author and playwright, (1924-1987)said it.
He also said of kids:
	"A child cannot be taught by anyone who despises him,
	 and a child cannot afford to be fooled."
> "Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full
> value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it
> with."
Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain, 1835-1910) said,
	"Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value
	 of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with."
> "Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting 
> before you get tired."
This quote about diligence is from Mortimer Caplin, former U.S. IRS
Commissioner under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson.  Wanna see him?
