Famous quotes containing the words learning and/or team:
“I think it is better to show love by meeting needs than to keep telling my son that I love him. Right now he is learning to tie his shoes. He is old enough, so even though its hard for him, sometimes I insist. But once in a while when I see hes tired I still do it for him, and I have noticed that while I am tying his shoe, he says, I love you, Mommy. When he says, I love you, I know that he knows that he is loved.”
—Anonymous Parent (20th century)
“I also heard the whooping of the ice in the pond, my great bed-fellow in that part of Concord, as if it were restless in its bed and would fain turn over, were troubled with flatulency and bad dreams; or I was waked by the cracking of the ground by the frost, as if some one had driven a team against my door, and in the morning would find a crack in the earth a quarter of a mile long and a third of an inch wide.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
