Dear

Famous quotes containing the word dear:

    “There are some things, my dear Fisher, which do not bear much looking into. You undoubtedly have heard of the Siberian goat herder who tried to discover the true nature of the sun.

    —Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    “No man can tell but he that loves his children, how many delicious accents make a man’s heart dance in the pretty conversation of those dear pledges; their childishness, their stammering, their little angers, their innocence, their imperfections, their necessities, are so many little emanations of joy and comfort to him that delights in their persons and society.”
    —Jeremy Taylor (1613–1667)

    “Oh my swan, my drudge, my dear wooly rose,

    as you knead me and I rise like bread.”
