Stages

Famous quotes containing the word stages:

    The four stages of man are infancy, childhood, adolescence and obsolescence.
    Art Linkletter (20th century)

    But parents can be understanding and accept the more difficult stages as necessary times of growth for the child. Parents can appreciate the fact that these phases are not easy for the child to live through either; rapid growth times are hard on a child. Perhaps it’s a small comfort to know that the harder-to-live-with stages do alternate with the calmer times,so parents can count on getting periodic breaks.
    Saf Lerman (20th century)

    Whoe’er has travelled life’s dull round,
    Where’er his stages may have been,
    May sigh to think he still has found
    The warmest welcome, at an inn.
    William Shenstone (1714–1763)
