Jump

Famous quotes containing the word jump:

    The limits of prudence: one cannot jump out of a burning building gradually.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    A baby is a full time job for three adults. Nobody tells you that when you’re pregnant, or you’d probably jump off a bridge. Nobody tells you how all-consuming it is to be a mother—how reading goes out the window and thinking too.
    Erica Jong (20th century)

    I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,
    And what can be the use of him is more than I can see.
    He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;
    And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
