Famous quotes containing the words oar and/or handle:

    “There are no galley-slaves in the royal vessel of divine love—every man works his oar voluntarily!”
    —St. Francis De Sales (1567–1622)

    “I believe that if we are to survive as a planet, we must teach this next generation to handle their own conflicts assertively and nonviolently. If in their early years our children learn to listen to all sides of the story, use their heads and then their mouths, and come up with a plan and share, then, when they become our leaders, and some of them will, they will have the tools to handle global problems and conflict.”
    —Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
