Special Hands

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or hands:

    “The books may say that nine-month-olds crawl, say their first words, and are afraid of strangers. Your exuberantly concrete and special nine-month-old hasn’t read them. She may be walking already, not saying a word and smiling gleefully at every stranger she sees. . . . You can support her best by helping her learn what she’s trying to learn, not what the books say a typical child ought to be learning.”
    —Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)

    “But, children, you should never let
    Such angry passions rise;
    Your little hands were never made
    To tear each other’s eyes.”
    —Isaac Watts (1674–1748)
