Fall

Famous quotes containing the word fall:

    I fellowed sleep who kissed me in the brain,
    Let fall the tear of time; the sleeper’s eye,
    Shifting to light, turned on me like a moon.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    The tension to mother the “right” way can leave a peculiar silence within mother daughter relationships—the silence of a mother’s own truth and experience. Within this silence, a daughter’s authentic voice can also fall silent. This is the silence of perfection. This silence of perfection prevents mothers from listening and learning from their daughters.
    Elizabeth Debold (20th century)

    When the flight is not high the fall is not heavy.
    Chinese proverb.
