Strong

Famous quotes containing the word strong:

    In strong winds is hearty grass known.
    Chinese proverb.

    The toddler’s wish to please ... is a powerful aid in helping the child to develop a social awareness and, eventually, a moral conscience. The child’s love for the parent is so strong that it causes him to change his behavior: to refrain from hitting and biting, to share toys with a peer, to become toilet trained. This wish for approval is the parent’s most reliable ally in the process of socializing the child.
    Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)

    Heaven is not like flying or swimming,
    but has something to do with blackness and a strong glare
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
