Clown Baby

Famous quotes containing the words clown and/or baby:

“They tell us sometimes that if we had only kept quiet, all these desirable things would have come about of themselves. I am reminded of the Greek clown who, having seen an archer bring down a flying bird, remarked, sagely: “You might have saved your arrow, for the bird would anyway have been killed by the fall.””
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

“And when our baby stirs and struggles to be born
It compels humility: what we began
Is now its own.”
—Anne Ridler (b. 1912)
