Famous quotes containing the words increased, focus and/or series:

    “Every increased possession loads us with a new weariness.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    “If we focus mostly on how we might have been partly or wholly to blame for what might have been less than a perfect, problem- free childhood, our guilt will overwhelm their pain. It becomes a story about us, not them. . . . When we listen, accept, and acknowledge, we feel regret instead, which is simply guilt without neurosis.”
    —Jane Adams (20th century)

    “Mortality: not acquittal but a series of postponements is what we hope for.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
