Rewards

Famous quotes containing the word rewards:

    The rewards of virtue alone abide secure.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)

    No one ever promised me it would be easy and it’s not. But I also get many rewards from seeing my children grow, make strong decisions for themselves, and set out on their own as independent, strong, likeable human beings. And I like who I am becoming, too. Having teenagers has made me more human, more flexible, more humble, more questioning—and, finally it’s given me a better sense of humor!
    —Anonymous Father. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 4 (1978)

    And soon it is neither here nor there
    Whether time’s rewards are fair or unfair.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
