Adult Fare

Famous quotes containing the words adult and/or fare:

    Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.
    Joan Sheingold Ditzion, Dennie, and Palmer Wolf. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)

    Issues from the hand of time the simple soul
    Irresolute and selfish, misshapen, lame,
    Unable to fare forward or retreat....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
