Famous quotes containing the words hurry and/or love:
“We are playing with fire when we skip the years of three, four, and five to hurry children into being age six.... Every child has a right to his fifth year of life, his fourth year, his third year. He has a right to live each year with joy and self-fulfillment. No one should ever claim the power to make a child mortgage his today for the sake of tomorrow.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
“Your love by ours we measure
Till we have lost our treasure,
But dying is a pleasure,
When living is a pain.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
