Context: To freely bloom — that is my definition of success.
The question then is, How does arguing with our children advance our goal that our children freely bloom.

“Bloom, O ye Amaranths! bloom for whom ye may,
For me ye bloom not!”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834) English poet, literary critic and philosopher
Source: Work Without Hope (1825), l. 9.
Context: Bloom, O ye Amaranths! bloom for whom ye may,
For me ye bloom not! Glide, rich streams, away!
With lips unbrightened, wreathless brow, I stroll:
And would you learn the spells that drowse my soul?
Work without Hope draws nectar in a sieve,
And Hope without an object cannot live.
Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924) American politician, 28th president of the United States (in office from 1913 to 1921)

On the Uses and Transformations of Linear Algebra (1875)
Context: Some definite interpretation of a linear algebra would, at first sight, appear indispensable to its successful application. But on the contrary, it is a singular fact, and one quite consonant with the principles of sound logic, that its first and general use is mostly to be expected from its want of significance. The interpretation is a trammel to the use. Symbols are essential to comprehensive argument.
