Famous quotes containing the words face, recognition, grand and/or challenge:

    “The face we see was never young,
    Nor could it ever have been old.

    For he, to whom we had applied
    Our shopman’s test of age and worth,
    Was elemental when he died,
    As he was ancient at his birth:”
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    “While you are nurturing your newborn, you need someone to nurture you, whether it is with healthful drinks while you’re nursing, or with words of recognition and encouragement as you talk about your feelings. In this state of continual giving to your infant—whether it is nourishment or care or love—you are easily drained, and you need to be replenished from sources outside yourself so that you will have reserves to draw from.”
    —Sally Placksin (20th century)

    “The Olympian gods cannot have grand passions because they cannot die.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Seas of bright juice suffuse heaven.

    The earth by the sky staid with, the daily close of their junction,
    The heav’d challenge from the east that moment over my head,
    The mocking taunt, See then whether you shall be master!”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
