Watched

Famous quotes containing the word watched:

    You’ve watched me all your life,
    I’ve clothed your wife,
    put your two sons through college.
    What good has it done?
    Sun keeps rising every morning.
    Ray Durem (1915–1963)

    I have watched ... many literary fashions shoot up and blossom, and then fade and drop.... Yet with the many that I have seen come and go, I have never yet encountered a mode of thinking that regarded itself as simply a changing fashion, and not as an infallible approach to the right culture.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)

    Until a friend or relative has applied a particular proverb to your own life, or until you’ve watched him apply the proverb to his own life, it has no power to sway you.
    Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)
