Bill Smith

Famous quotes containing the words bill and/or smith:

    The first year was critical to my assessment of myself as a person. It forced me to realize that, like being married, having children is not an end in itself. You don’t at last arrive at being a parent and suddenly feel satisfied and joyful. It is a constantly reopening adventure.
    —Anonymous Mother. From the Boston Women’s Health Book Collection. Quoted in The Joys of Having a Child, by Bill and Gloria Adler (1993)

    Heat, ma’am! It was so dreadful here that I found there was nothing left for it but to take off my flesh and sit in my bones.
    —Sydney Smith (1771–1845)
