Choose

Famous quotes containing the word choose:

    If you could choose your parents,... we would rather have a mother who felt a sense of guilt—at any rate who felt responsible, and felt that if things went wrong it was probably her fault—we’d rather have that than a mother who immediately turned to an outside thing to explain everything, and said it was due to the thunderstorm last night or some quite outside phenomenon and didn’t take responsibility for anything.
    D.W. Winnicott (20th century)

    In French literature, you can choose “à la carte”; in Spanish literature, there is only the set meal.
    José Bergamín (1895–1983)

    And we, barely recalled from sleep there, sense
    Arrivals lowing in a doleful distance
    Horny dilemmas at the gate once more.
    Come and choose wrong, they cry, come and choose wrong....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
