Hand/definitions

Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or definitions:

    One hand stiff—heaviness of forties & menopause reduced
    by one heart stroke, lame now—wrinkles—a scar on
    her head, the lobotomy—ruin, the hand dipping downwards to
    death—
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    The loosening, for some people, of rigid role definitions for men and women has shown that dads can be great at calming babies—if they take the time and make the effort to learn how. It’s that time and effort that not only teaches the dad how to calm the babies, but also turns him into a parent, just as the time and effort the mother puts into the babies turns her into a parent.
    Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
