Famous quotes containing the words year and/or team:
“A man I praise that once in Tara’s Halls
Said to the woman on his knees, “Lie still,
My hundredth year is at an end. I think
That something is about to happen, I think
That the adventure of old age begins....””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Relying on any one disciplinary approach—time-out, negotiation, tough love, the star system—puts the parenting team at risk. Why? Because children adapt to any method very quickly; today’s effective technique becomes tomorrow’s worn dance.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
