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?
