Famous quotes containing the words guide and/or strand:
“In the continual enterprise of trying to guide appropriately, renegotiate with, listen to and just generally coexist with our teenage children, we ourselves are changed. We learn even more clearly what our base-line virtues are. We listen to our teenagers and change our minds about some things, stretching our own limits. We learn our own capacity for flexibility, firmness and endurance.”
—Jean Jacobs Speizer. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Collective, ch. 4 (1978)
“You went on with your dying.
Nothing could stop you. Not your son. Not your daughter
Who fed you and made you into a child again.”
—Mark Strand (b. 1934)
