Famous quotes containing the word changed:
“he changed and ran
Through many shapes; I lunged at the smooth throat
Of a great eel; it changed, and I but smote
A fir-tree roaring in its leafless top;
And thereupon I drew the livid chop
Of a drowned dripping body to my breast....”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
The air is full of children, statues, roofs
And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“I think that parents ought to get some idea of how the so- called experts have changed their advice over the decades, so that they wont take them deadly seriously, and so that if the parent has the strong feeling, I dont like this advice, the parent wont feel compelled to follow it. . . . So dont worry about trying to do a perfect job. There is no perfect job. There is no one way of raising your children.”
—Benjamin Spock (b. 1903)
