Famous quotes containing the word ground:

“If there were one who lived wholly without the use of money, the State itself would hesitate to demand it of him. But the rich man—not to make any invidious comparison—is always sold to the institution which makes him rich.... Thus his moral ground is taken from under his feet.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 10:29.

“Our children do not want models of perfection, neither do they want us to be buddies, friends, or confidants who never rise above their own levels of maturity and experience. We need to walk that middle ground between perfection and peerage, between intense meddling and apathy—the middle ground where our values, standards, and expectations can be shared with our children.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
