Rigid Rotor Model

Famous quotes containing the words rigid and/or model:

    “They work, and age, and put off men
    By being unattractive, or too shy,
    Or having morals anyhow, none give in:
    Some of them go quite rigid with disgust
    At anything but marriage....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “The best way to teach a child restraint and generosity is to be a model of those qualities yourself. If your child sees that you want a particular item but refrain from buying it, either because it isn’t practical or because you can’t afford it, he will begin to understand restraint. Likewise, if you donate books or clothing to charity, take him with you to distribute the items to teach him about generosity.”
    —Lawrence Balter (20th century)
