"One evening, when I was yet in my nurse’s arms, I wanted to touch the
tea urn, which was boiling merrily... My nurse would have taken me away
from the urn, but my mother said 'Let him touch it.' So I touched it --
and that was my first lesson in the meaning of liberty." | Quote by: | John Ruskin
(1819-1900) British author, artist, social critic |
