Famous quotes containing the words local and/or show:
“While it may not heighten our sympathy, wit widens our horizons by its flashes, revealing remote hidden affiliations and drawing laughter from far afield; humor, in contrast, strikes up fellow feeling, and though it does not leap so much across time and space, enriches our insight into the universal in familiar things, lending it a local habitation and a name.”
—Marie Collins Swabey. Comic Laughter, ch. 5, Yale University Press (1961)
“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)
