Hammer Action

Famous quotes containing the words hammer and/or action:

    Many hammer all over the wall and believe that with each blow they hit the nail on the head.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Without our being especially conscious of the transition, the word “parent” has gradually come to be used as much as a verb as a noun. Whereas we formerly thought mainly about “being a parent,” we now find ourselves talking about learning how “to parent.” . . . It suggests that we may now be concentrating on action rather than status, on what we do rather than what or who we are.
    Bettye M. Caldwell (20th century)
