Famous quotes containing the words styles and, styles, forms and/or address:

    Can we love our children when they are homely, awkward, unkempt, flaunting the styles and friendships we don’t approve of, when they fail to be the best, the brightest, the most accomplished at school or even at home? Can we be there when their world has fallen apart and only we can restore their faith and confidence in life?
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    There are only two styles of portrait painting; the serious and the smirk.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    ‘Tis education forms the common mind,
    Just as the twig is bent, the tree’s inclined.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Take a red book called TELEPHONE,
    size eight by four. There it sits.
    My red book, name, address and number.
    These are all people that I somehow own.
    Yet some of these names are counterfeit.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
