Deeply Cut

Famous quotes containing the words deeply and/or cut:

    Our basic ideas about how to parent are encrusted with deeply felt emotions and many myths. One of the myths of parenting is that it is always fun and games, joy and delight. Everyone who has been a parent will testify that it is also anxiety, strife, frustration, and even hostility. Thus most major parenting- education formats deal with parental emotions and attitudes and, to a greater or lesser extent, advocate that the emotional component is more important than the knowledge.
    Bettye M. Caldwell (20th century)

    He gathers all the parish there;
    Points out the place of either yew,
    Here Baucis, there Philemon, grew.
    Till once a parson of our town,
    To mend his barn, cut Baucis down;
    At which, ‘tis hard to be believed
    How much the other tree was grieved,
    Grew scrubby, died a-top, was stunted:
    So the next parson stubbed and burnt it.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
