Famous quotes containing the word respond:

    “Excessive attention, even if it’s negative, is such a powerful “reward” to a child that it actually reinforces the undesirable behavior. You need to learn restraint, to respond to far fewer situations, to ask yourself questions like, “Is this really important?” “Could I let this behavior go?” “What would happen if I just wait?” “Could I lose by doing nothing?””
    —Stanley Turecki (20th century)

    “We respond to a drama to that extent to which it corresponds to our dreamlife.”
    —David Mamet (b. 1947)

    “Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Eli, in 1 Samuel, 3:9.
