Balancing Rock

Famous quotes containing the words balancing and/or rock:

    “Communication is a continual balancing act, juggling the conflicting needs for intimacy and independence. To survive in the world, we have to act in concert with others, but to survive as ourselves, rather than simply as cogs in a wheel, we have to act alone.”
    —Deborah Tannen (20th century)

    ““O what unlucky streak
    Twisting inside me, made me break the line?
    What was the rock my gliding childhood struck,
    And what bright unreal path has led me here?””
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
