Famous quotes containing the words birthday and/or bundle:
“Since mothers are more likely to take children to their activitiesthe playground, ballet or karate class, birthday partiesthey get a chance to see other children in action.... Fathers usually dont spend as much time with other peoples kids; because of this, they have a narrower view of what constitutes normal behavior, and therefore what should or shouldnt require parental discipline.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“There is Lowell, whos striving Parnassus to climb
With a whole bale of isms tied together with rhyme,
He might get on alone, spite of brambles and boulders,
But he cant with that bundle he has on his shoulders,
The top of the hill he will neer come nigh reaching
Till he learns the distinction twixt singing and preaching;”
—James Russell Lowell (18191891)
