Special Move

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or move:

    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)

    Take a woman talking,
    purging herself with rhymes,
    drumming words out like a typewriter,
    planting words in you like grass seed.
    You’ll move off.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
