- Ireland's President, Mary McAleese from the 2011 World Fourm Foundation: "We get one go around with our children, so we who are the engravers on their lives, we have to engrave well, and we have to know, and be taught how to engrave well. God knows we have plenty of experience of engraving badly. But there is good news on the horizon and that is the capacity of the human person to change, learn and to do what you (early childhood professionals) are doing here, and give each other the benefit of your wisdom and experience so we we have this global resource of good practices, best practices, things that work and things that don't work to share with one another."
