Brooks Men

Famous quotes containing the words brooks and/or men:

    Refuses
    To refuse the racket, to mutter No to the net.
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    We have seen that men are learning that work, productivity, and marriage may be very important parts of life, but they are not its whole cloth. The rest of the fabric is made of nurturing relationships, especially those with children—relationships which are intimate, trusting, humane, complex, and full of care.
    Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)
