"To be a child is to believe...
it is to be something very different from the man of to-day. it is to believe in love, to believe in loveliness, to believe in belief; it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear; it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses, and nothing into everything,
for each child has its fairy godmother in its own soul."

"We know that the outcasts and misfits are the children most likely to become violent,
so it only follows that we must pull them into the arms of love and/or acceptance, and find a place where they fit.
If our system doesn't have a place where a child fits, there's something wrong with the system, not the child."
