" Let there be nothing harmonious about our children's playthings...They are spying on real grownups all the time, learning what they fight about, what their greedy for, how they satisfy their greed, why and how they like, what makes them go crazy, the different ways they go crazy, and so on. I cannot predict the fields in which these children of mine will succeed, but I guarantee success for them without exception, anywhere in the civilized world. "
