Run Length

Famous quotes containing the words run and/or length:

    We perversely see mother love as the problem—when it is all we have to sustain us—rather than blaming the fathers who have run out on our mothers and on us. We seem willing to forgive fathers for loving too little even as we still shrink in terror from mothers who love too much.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)

    Oft have I mused, but now at length I find,
    Why those that die, men say they do depart.
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
