Melon Berry

Famous quotes containing the words melon and/or berry:

    I unknit.
    Words fly out of place
    and I, long into the desert,
    drink and drink
    and bow my head to that meadow
    the breast, the melon in it....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Being a parent is a form of leadership. . . . Parents make a mistake, along with leaders of organizations, when they are unwilling to recognize the power inherent in the positions they occupy and when they are unwilling to use this power. . . . I do not mean a figure who is irrational, autocratic, or sadistic. I mean leaders who have the strength of character to stand up for what they believe.
    —Abraham Zaleznik. In Support of Families, ed. Michael W. Yogman and T. Berry Brazelton, ch. 8 (1986)
