Emotional Fire

Famous quotes containing the words emotional and/or fire:

    Compared to other parents, remarried parents seem more desirous of their child’s approval, more alert to the child’s emotional state, and more sensitive in their parent-child relations. Perhaps this is the result of heightened empathy for the child’s suffering, perhaps it is a guilt reaction; in either case, it gives the child a potent weapon—the power to disrupt the new household and come between parent and the new spouse.
    Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    a man sleeps where fire leapt down and she learns through his arm
    That other sun, the jealous coursing of the unrivalled blood.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
