Chickens Coming Home

Famous quotes containing the words chickens, coming and/or home:

    Physically there is nothing to distinguish human society from the farm-yard except that children are more troublesome and costly than chickens and calves and that men and women are not so completely enslaved as farm stock.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    For through it all—above, beyond it all—
    I know the far-sent message of the years,
    I feel the coming glory of the Light.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    To be motivated to sit at home and study, instead of going out and playing, children need a sense of themselves over time—they need to be able to picture themselves in the future.... If they can’t, then they’re simply reacting to daily events, responding to the needs of the moment—for pleasure, for affiliation, for acceptance.
    Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
