Famous quotes containing the words catch and/or phase:
“That is what we must make people feel... the catch in the throat, the wrench to steady the nerves, the determination to carry on.”

“I had let preadolescence creep up on me without paying much attention—and I seriously underestimated this insidious phase of child development. You hear about it, but you’re not a true believer until it jumps out at you in the shape of your own, until recently quite companionable child.”
—Susan Ferraro (20th century)
