Famous quotes containing the words polish, noble and/or families:

    “You will have to polish up the stars
    with Bab-o and find a new God
    as the earth empties out
    into the gnarled hands of the old redeemer.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “I’m not sentimental about war. I see nothing noble in widows.”
    —Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)

    “We as a nation need to be reeducated about the necessary and sufficient conditions for making human beings human. We need to be reeducated not as parents—but as workers, neighbors, and friends; and as members of the organizations, committees, boards—and, especially, the informal networks that control our social institutions and thereby determine the conditions of life for our families and their children.”
    —Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
