Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or children:
“With his brows knit, his mind made up, his will resolved and resistless, he advances, crashing his way through the host of weak, half-formed, dilettante opinions, honest and dishonest ways of thinking, with their standards raised, sentimentalities and conjectures, and tramples them all into dust. See how he prevails; you don’t even hear the groans of the wounded and dying.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“One important reason to stay calm is that calm parents hear more. Low-key, accepting parents are the ones whose children keep talking.”
—Mary Pipher (20th century)
