Beginning

Famous quotes containing the word beginning:

    Stupid word, that. Period. In America it means “full stop” like in punctuation. That’s stupid as well. A period isn’t a full stop. It’s a new beginning. I don’t mean all that creativity, life-giving force, earth-mother stuff, I mean it’s a new beginning to the month, relief that you’re not pregnant, when you don’t have to have a child.
    Michelene Wandor (b. 1940)

    As the proverb says, “a good beginning is half the business” and “to have begun well” is praised by all.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
