Stay

Famous quotes containing the word stay:

    “I’m sorry to say my dear wife is a dreamer,
    And as she dreams she gets paler and leaner.
    Then be off to your Dream, with his fly-away hat,
    I’ll stay with the girls who are happy and fat.”
    —Stevie Smith (1902–1971)

    “One important reason to stay calm is that calm parents hear more. Low-key, accepting parents are the ones whose children keep talking.”
    —Mary Pipher (20th century)

    “Never invite to dinner: those who won’t decide until the last minute; those who come more than half an hour late; those who want to bring along two or three friends; drunks; monologists; those who stay until three o’clock in the morning; those who think that conversation means having an argument; those who take a high moral tone; those who are stupid, ugly, or dull. Enforcement of these rules will enable one to eat alone every night in comfort.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
