Famous quotes containing the words read and/or text:
“Parenting is not logical. If it were, we would never have to read a book, never need a family therapist, and never feel the urge to call a close friend late at night for support after a particularly trying bedtime scene. . . . We have moments of logic, but life is run by a much larger force. Life is filled with disagreement, opposition, illusion, irrational thinking, miracle, meaning, surprise, and wonder.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“What our eyes behold may well be the text of life but ones meditations on the text and the disclosures of these meditations are no less a part of the structure of reality.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
