Daily Life

Famous quotes containing the words daily life, daily and/or life:

    In daily life what distinguishes the master is the using those materials he has, instead of looking about for what are more renowned, or what others have used well.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    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)

    The authoritarian child-rearing style so often found in working-class families stems in part from the fact that parents see around them so many young people whose lives are touched by the pain and delinquency that so often accompanies a life of poverty. Therefore, these parents live in fear for their children’s future—fear that they’ll lose control, that the children will wind up on the streets or, worse yet, in jail.
    Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)
