Famous quotes containing the words bone and/or growth:
“Sang a bone upon the shore;
A man if I but held him so
When my body was alive
Found all the pleasure that life gave:
A bone wave-whitened and dried in the wind.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Every child has an inner timetable for growtha pattern unique to him. . . . Growth is not steady, forward, upward progression. It is instead a switchback trail; three steps forward, two back, one around the bushes, and a few simply standing, before another forward leap.”
—Dorothy Corkville Briggs (20th century)
