Famous quotes containing the words finding and/or fish:
“A child is born with the potential ability to learn Chinese or Swahili, play a kazoo, climb a tree, make a strudel or a birdhouse, take pleasure in finding the coordinates of a star. Genetic inheritance determines a childs abilities and weaknesses. But those who raise a child call forth from that matrix the traits and talents they consider important.”
—Emilie Buchwald (20th century)
“I close my eyes and suck you in like a fire.
I grow. I grow. Im fattening out.
Im a kid in a rowboat and youre the sea,
the salt, youre every fish of importance.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
