Prior Statement

Famous quotes containing the words prior and/or statement:

    “A diff’rent cause, says Parson Sly,
    The same effect may give:
    Poor Lubin fears, that he shall die;
    His wife, that he may live.”
    —Matthew Prior (1664–1721)

    “The parent is the strongest statement that the child hears regarding what it means to be alive and real. More than what we say or do, the way we are expresses what we think it means to be alive. So the articulate parent is less a telling than a listening individual.”
    —Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
