Picking

Famous quotes containing the word picking:

    Preschoolers think and talk in concrete, literal terms. When they hear a phrase such as “losing your temper,” they may wonder where the lost temper can be found. Other expressions they may hear in times of crisis—raising your voice, crying your eyes out, going to pieces, falling apart, picking on each other, you follow in your father’s footsteps—may be perplexing.
    Ruth Formanek (20th century)

    No more picking on Dim, brother. That’s part of the new way.
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    One may no more live in the world without picking up the moral prejudices of the world than one will be able to go to hell without perspiring.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
