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 Ill miss you, or I will think of you during the day, or It is hard to say goodbye, or I cant 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)
“...we avoid hospitals because ... theyll kill you there. They overtreat you. And when they see how old you are, and that you still have a mind, they treat you like a curiosity: like Exhibit A and Exhibit B. Like, Hey. nurse, come on over here and looky-here at this old woman, shes in such good shape.... . Most of the time they dont even treat you like a person, just an object.”
—Annie Elizabeth Delany (b. 1891)
