Push Water

Famous quotes containing the words push and/or water:

    Many parents worry that they will reinforce a fear by being overly sympathetic. It helps to know that when children are permitted to avoid an animal or an object that frightens them, they tend to overcome a fear sooner than if parents push them to confront it.
    Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)

    If water is too clear, it will not contain fish; people who are too cautious will never gain wisdom.
