Range Spans

Famous quotes containing the words range and/or spans:

    Whereas children can learn from their interactions with their parents how to get along in one sort of social hierarchy—that of the family—it is from their interactions with peers that they can best learn how to survive among equals in a wide range of social situations.
    Zick Rubin (20th century)

    This is my playes last scene, here heavens appoint
    My pilgrimages last mile; and my race
    Idly, yet quickly runne, hath this last pace,
    My spans last inch, my minutes last point,
    And gluttonous death, will instantly unjoynt
    My body, and soule, and I shall sleepe a space,
    John Donne (1572–1631)
