Stable/horses

Famous quotes containing the words stable and/or horses:

    If it is to be done well, child-rearing requires, more than most activities of life, a good deal of decentering from one’s own needs and perspectives. Such decentering is relatively easy when a society is stable and when there is an extended, supportive structure that the parent can depend upon.
    David Elkind (20th century)

    Thou didst drink
    The stale of horses and the gilded puddle
    That beasts would cough at.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
