Famous quotes containing the words magnet and/or center:
“It has lately been drawn to your correspondents attention that, at social gatherings, she is not the human magnet she would be. Indeed, it turns out that as a source of entertainment, conviviality, and good fun, she ranks somewhere between a sprig of parsley and a single ice- skate. It would appear, from the actions of the assembled guests, that she is about as hot company as a night nurse.”
—Dorothy Parker (18931967)
“Children cant be a center of life and a reason for being. They can be a thousand things that are delightful, interesting, satisfying, but they cant be a wellspring to live from. Or they shouldnt be.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
