Definitions and quotes

People
A people is a plurality of persons considered as a whole, as is the case with an ethnic group or nation. Collectively, for example, the contemporary Frisians and Danes are two related Germanic peoples, while various Middle Eastern ethnic groups are often linguistically categorized as Semitic peoples.
Children
And all your sons will be persons taught by Jehovah, and the peace of your sons will be abundant.
Isaiah, Isaiah 54:13, NWT
Children
The welfare of a child is not to be measured by money only, nor by physical comfort only.
Nathaniel Lindley, Baron Lindley, L.J., In re McGrath (Infants), L. R. 1 C. D. (1893), p. 148; reported in James William Norton-Kyshe, Dictionary of Legal Quotations (1904), p. 188.
Children
A child born today in the United Kingdom stands a ten times greater chance of being admitted to a mental hospital than to a university … This can be taken as an indication that we are driving our children mad more effectively than we are genuinely educating them. Perhaps it is our way of educating them that is driving them mad.
R.D. Laing, The Politics of Experience.
An EU-funded project is helping to unveil the first European research infrastructure in the field of wind energy. This research facility in Denmark should facilitate researchers in their quest to measure and understand the 3D and time-varying wind fields.
