Ash United

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or united:

    The last cobwebs
    of fog in the
    black firtrees are flakes
    of white ash in the world’s hearth.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    In the United States, it is now possible for a person eighteen years of age, female as well as male, to graduate from high school, college, or university without ever having cared for, or even held, a baby; without ever having comforted or assisted another human being who really needed help. . . . No society can long sustain itself unless its members have learned the sensitivities, motivations, and skills involved in assisting and caring for other human beings.
    Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
