Emotional State

Famous quotes containing the words emotional state, emotional and/or state:

    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)

    Good schools are schools for the development of the whole child. They seek to help children develop to their maximum their social powers and their intellectual powers, their emotional capacities, their physical powers.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    I met a traveler from Arkansas
    Who boasted of his state as beautiful
    For diamonds and apples.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
