Field Goal Anderson

Famous quotes containing the words field, goal and/or anderson:

    And they wonder, as waiting the long years through
    In the dust of that little chair,

    Since he kissed them and put them there.

    To achieve the larger goal of teaching her children consideration of others, a mother can tolerate some frustration of her own wishes, she can delay having what she wants, she can be flexible enough to compromise. And this is exactly what her child must also learn: that it is possible to survive frustration, it is possible to wait for what he wants, it is possible to compromise without capitulating.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few.
    —Maxwell Anderson (1888–1959)
