Famous quotes containing the word watched:
“Before I had my first child, I never really looked forward in anticipation to the future. As I watched my son grow and learn, I began to imagine the world this generation of children would live in. I thought of the children they would have, and of their children. I felt connected to life both before my time and beyond it. Children are our link to future generations that we will never see.”
—Louise Hart (20th century)
“I watched him; and the sight was not so fair
As one or two that I have seen elsewhere:
An apparatus not for me to mend
A wreck, with hell between him and the end.”
—Edwin Arlington Robinson (18691935)
“Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda,
Wholl come a-waltzing Matilda with me?
And he sang as he watched and waited while his billy boiled:
Wholl come a-waltzing Matilda with me?”
—Andrew Barton Peterson (18641941)
