Caused Extensive Damage

Famous quotes containing the words caused, extensive and/or damage:

    And I could see that child’s one eye
    Which seemed to laugh, and say with glee:
    ‘What caused my death you’ll never know—
    Perhaps my mother murdered me.’

    William Henry Davies (1871–1940)

    God gave the righteous man a certificate entitling him to food and raiment, but the unrighteous man found a facsimile of the same in God’s coffers, and appropriated it, and obtained food and raiment like the former. It is one of the most extensive systems of counterfeiting that the world has seen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The relationship between mother and professional has not been a partnership in which both work together on behalf of the child, in which the expert helps the mother achieve her own goals for her child. Instead, professionals often behave as if they alone are advocates for the child; as if they are the guardians of the child’s needs; as if the mother left to her own devices will surely damage the child and only the professional can rescue him.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)
