Famous quotes containing the word main:

    “One of the main things that interfere with our joy is the belief that if we try hard enough, read the right books, follow the right advice, and buy the right things, we could be perfect parents. If we are good enough as parents, our children will be perfect too.... Unfortunately, what comes from trying to live out this philosophy is not perfect children but worried parents.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    “The aphorism wants to be at the same time both main line and off beat.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
