Winter Home

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or home:

    And in spite of all the dishonour,
    The broken standards, the broken lives,
    The broken faith in one place or another,
    here was something left that was more than the tales
    Of old men on winter evenings.
    Only the faith could have done what was good of it....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    To be motivated to sit at home and study, instead of going out and playing, children need a sense of themselves over time—they need to be able to picture themselves in the future.... If they can’t, then they’re simply reacting to daily events, responding to the needs of the moment—for pleasure, for affiliation, for acceptance.
    Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
