Famous quotes containing the words laura and/or wade:
“A new talker will often call her caregiver “mommy,” which makes parents worry that the child is confused about who is who. She isn’t. This is a case of limited vocabulary rather than mixed-up identities. When a child has only one word for the female person who takes care of her, calling both of them “mommy” is understandable.”
—Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
“I am in blood
Stepped in so far, that should I wade no more,
Returning were as tedious as go o’er.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
