Hebrew Parent Text

Famous quotes containing the words hebrew, parent and/or text:

    The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
    —Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes, 1:9.

    The parent is the strongest statement that the child hears regarding what it means to be alive and real. More than what we say or do, the way we are expresses what we think it means to be alive. So the articulate parent is less a telling than a listening individual.
    Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)

    What our eyes behold may well be the text of life but one’s meditations on the text and the disclosures of these meditations are no less a part of the structure of reality.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
