Famous quotes containing the words full, including and/or routes:

    Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

    You have got to prepare for a lifetime of the pillory, for whatever you do will be seen as wrong by total strangers, up until and including the time when whatever your child does will be seen as wrong by total strangers.
    Sonia Taitz (20th century)

    The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.
    Terri Apter (20th century)
