Famous quotes containing the words ferraro and/or received:
“I respect guilt. It is a dangerous but sometimes useful beast. The guilt that made me want to solve all my childrens problems meant trouble. The guilt that made me question my role in our mother-daughter squabbles proved helpful. Yes, I care about my kids problems, and I long to make suggestions. But these days I wait for children to ask for help, and I give it sparingly. Some things cant be fixed, and I tell them so.”
—Susan Ferraro (20th century)
“The Concord had rarely been a river, or rivus, but barely fluvius, or between fluvius and lacus. This Merrimack was neither rivus nor fluvius nor lacus, but rather amnis here, a gently swelling and stately rolling flood approaching the sea. We could even sympathize with its buoyant tied, going to seek its fortune in the ocean, and anticipating the time when being received within the plain of its freer water, it should beat the shore for banks.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
