Thrown Ball

Famous quotes containing the words thrown and/or ball:

    This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.
    Joan Sheingold Ditzion, Dennie, and Palmer Wolf. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)
