Current Top Star

Famous quotes containing the words current, top and/or star:

    The English language may hold a more disagreeable combination of words than “The doctor will see you now.” I am willing to concede something to the phrase “Have you anything to say before the current is turned on?”
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    O, ‘tis a parlous boy,
    Bold, quick, ingenious, forward, capable.
    He is all the mother’s, from the top to toe.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Relying on any one disciplinary approach—time-out, negotiation, tough love, the star system—puts the parenting team at risk. Why? Because children adapt to any method very quickly; today’s effective technique becomes tomorrow’s worn dance.
    Ron Taffel (20th century)
