Famous quotes containing the words diminished and/or intervals:
“The opportunities of living are diminished in proportion as what are called the “means” are increased.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It can be demonstrated that the child’s contact with the real world is strengthened by his periodic excursions into fantasy. It becomes easier to tolerate the frustrations of the real world and to accede to the demands of reality if one can restore himself at intervals in a world where the deepest wishes can achieve imaginary gratification.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
