Famous quotes containing the words signs and/or symptoms:

    Young children scare easily—a tough tone, a sharp reprimand, an exasperated glance, a peeved scowl will do it. Little signs of rejection—you don’t have to hit young children to hurt them—cut very deeply.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
