Car Plant

Famous quotes containing the words car and/or plant:

    If a man, cautious,
    hides his limp,
    Somebody has to limp it! Things
    do it; the surroundings limp.
    House walls get scars,
    the car breaks down; matter, in drudgery, takes it up.
    Robert Bly (b. 1926)

    Now, what I want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. This is the principle on which I bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which I bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir!
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
