Child rearing is an art, and what makes art art is that it is doing several things at once. (Adam Gopnik)

By their critisism of the existing system, which repeats the Social-Democratic critisism almost word for word, the Bolshevik opposition is preparing minds ... for the acceptance of the positive platform of Social-Democracy. ...

Only recently did I come to the conclusion that it is wrong. View quote
