Famous quotes containing the words brood and/or nest:
“You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bear fruit worthy of repentance.”

“How then can we account for the persistence of the myth that inside the empty nest lives a shattered and depressed shell of a womana woman in constant pain because her children no longer live under her roof? Is it possible that a notion so pervasive is, in fact, just a myth?”
—Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)
