Dinner Time

Famous quotes containing the words dinner and/or time:

    “Long for me the rick will wait,
    And long will wait the fold,
    And long will stand the empty plate,
    And dinner will be cold.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    Some fear that if parents start listening to their own wants and needs they will neglect their children. It is our belief that children are in fact far less likely to be neglected when their parents’ needs—for support, for friendship, for decent work, for health care, for learning, for play, for time alone—are being met.
    —Wendy Coppedge Sanford. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, introduction (1978)
