Famous quotes containing the word shut:

    She has problems with separation; he has trouble with unity—problems that make themselves felt in our relationships with our children just as they do in our relations with each other. She pulls for connection; he pushes for separateness. She tends to feel shut out; he tends to feel overwhelmed and intruded upon. It’s one of the reasons why she turns so eagerly to children—especially when they’re very young.
    Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)

    One enemy, of many, who knows well
    Your heart is luminous
    In the watched dark, quivering through locks and caves,
    Will pull the thunderbolts
    To shut the sun, plunge, mount your darkened keys....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Within the memory of many of my townsmen the road near which my house stands resounded with the laugh and gossip of inhabitants, and the woods which border it were notched and dotted here and there with their little gardens and dwellings, though it was then much more shut in by the forest than now.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
