Famous quotes containing the words return to, return and/or britain:

    A tree may grow a thousand feet tall, but its leaves will return to its roots.
    Chinese proverb.

    Research shows clearly that parents who have modeled nurturant, reassuring responses to infants’ fears and distress by soothing words and stroking gentleness have toddlers who already can stroke a crying child’s hair. Toddlers whose special adults model kindliness will even pick up a cookie dropped from a peer’s high chair and return it to the crying peer rather than eat it themselves!
    Alice Sterling Honig (20th century)

    The only reason I might go to the funeral is to make absolutely sure that he’s dead.
