Comfort Killers

Famous quotes containing the words comfort and/or killers:

    If the child-caregiver relationship is nurturing, reliable and often even joyous, the child’s confidence in human relationships as a source of comfort and reciprocity will be strengthened and expanded in spite of the parent’s absence. The child will learn that not only are the parents to be trusted but that other people are trustworthy as well.
    Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)

    we want to remember when you were
    money in Massachusetts and yet were wild and rude
    and killers. We want our killers dressed in black
    like grease for we are sick of writing checks,
    putting on our socks and working in the little boxes
    we call the office.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
