Median Wait Time

Famous quotes containing the words wait and/or time:

    “Acknowledging separation feelings directly and sympathetically is the best way of coping with them. It is actually helpful to tell a toddler “I’ll miss you,” or “I will think of you during the day,” or “It is hard to say goodbye,” or “I can’t wait to see you at the end of the day.” These messages tell the child that he is important to the parent even when they are not together and that out of sight need not mean out of mind.”
    —Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)

    “Her heavenly form
    Angelic, but more soft and feminine,
    Her graceful innocence, her every air
    Of gesture or least action, overawed
    His malice, and with rapine sweet bereaved
    His fierceness of the fierce intent it brought.
    That space of Evil One abstracted stood
    From his own evil, and for the time remained
    Stupidly good, of enmity disarmed,”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
