Famous quotes containing the words notified, tribes and/or act:

    A gorgeous example of denial is the story about the little girl who was notified that a baby brother or sister was on the way. She listened in thoughtful silence, then raised her gaze from her mother’s belly to her eyes and said, “Yes, but who will be the new baby’s mommy?”
    Judith Viorst (20th century)

    I have no doubt that it is a part of the destiny of the human race, in its gradual improvement, to leave off eating animals, as surely as the savage tribes have left off eating each other when they came in contact with the more civilized.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The boldest stroke and best act of friendship is not to disclose our own failings to a friend, but to show him his own.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
