Famous quotes containing the words mobile and/or nets:
“From three to six months, most babies have settled down enough to be fun but aren’t mobile enough to be getting into trouble. This is the time to pay some attention to your relationship again. Otherwise, you may spend the entire postpartum year thinking you married the wrong person and overlooking the obvious—that parenthood can create rough spots even in the smoothest marriage.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
“And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people.” And immediately they left their nets and followed him.”
—Bible: New Testament, Mark 1:17,18.
