Small Letter Phi

Famous quotes containing the words small, letter and/or phi:

    The ancestral deed is thought and done,
    And in a million Edens fall
    A million Adams drowned in darkness,
    For small is great and great is small,
    And a blind seed all.
    Edwin Muir (1887–1959)

    And the one bird singing alone to his nest,
    And the one star over the tower.
    I thought of our little quarrels and strife,
    And the letter that brought me back my ring;
    And it all seem’d then, in the waste of life,
    “Owen” “Meredith” (1831–1891)

    Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.
    Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
