Repeats

Famous quotes containing the word repeats:

“Grief fills the room up of my absent child,
Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me,
Puts on his pretty looks, repeats his words,
Remembers me of all his gracious parts,
Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form;
Then have I reason to be fond of grief.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Because the soul is progressive, it never quite repeats itself, but in every act attempts the production of a new and fairer whole.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Raising children is an incredibly hard and risky business in which no cumulative wisdom is gained: each generation repeats the mistakes the previous one made.”
