Famous quotes containing the word capacity:

“Managing a tantrum involves nothing less than the formation of character. Even the parent’s capacity to cope well with conflict can improve with this experience. When a parent knows he is right and does not give in for the sake of temporary peace, everybody wins. The parent learns that denying some pleasure does not create a neurotic child and the child learns that she can survive momentary frustration.”
—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)

“One would never have guessed that the world had such a capacity for genuine grief. The most we can do is exploit our memories of his excellence.”
—John Cheever (1912–1982)

“The first half of it consists of the capacity to enjoy without the chance; the last half consists of the chance without the capacity.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
