Famous quotes containing the word meaning:

    Rhyme and meter force gaps in meaning so the muse can enter.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Parents must not only have certain ways of guiding by prohibition and permission; they must also be able to represent to the child a deep, an almost somatic conviction that there is a meaning to what they are doing. Ultimately, children become neurotic not from frustrations, but from the lack or loss of societal meaning in these frustrations.
    Erik H. Erikson (20th century)

    We must leave our pets at home, when we go into the street, and meet men on broad grounds of good meaning and good sense.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
