Concrete Ties

Famous quotes containing the words concrete and/or ties:

“Babies are necessary to grown-ups. A new baby is like the beginning of all things—wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities. In a world that is cutting down its trees to build highways, losing its earth to concrete ... babies are almost the only remaining link with nature, with the natural world of living things from which we spring.”
—Eda Le Shan (b. 1922)

“Sudden and swift and light as that
The ties gave,
And he learned of finalities
Beside the grave.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
