Famous quotes containing the word ease:

To help me through this long disease, my life;”

To ease attention off when overtight,
To break our logic in too long a flight,
And ask us if our premises are right.””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“The ease with which problems are understood and solved on paper, in books and magazine articles, is never matched by the reality of the mother’s experience. . . . Her child’s behavior often does not follow the storybook version. Her own feelings don’t match the way she has been told she ought to feel. . . . There is something wrong with either her child or her, she thinks. Either way, she accepts the blame and guilt.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
