Touched

Famous quotes containing the word touched:

    The authoritarian child-rearing style so often found in working-class families stems in part from the fact that parents see around them so many young people whose lives are touched by the pain and delinquency that so often accompanies a life of poverty. Therefore, these parents live in fear for their children’s future—fear that they’ll lose control, that the children will wind up on the streets or, worse yet, in jail.
    Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)

    Immediately aware that power had gone forth from him, Jesus turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my clothes?”

    Remember March, the Ides of March remember.
    Did not great Julius bleed for justice’ sake?
    What villain touched his body, that did stab
    And not for justice?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
