Famous quotes containing the word behavior:

    “Anytime we react to behavior in our children that we dislike in ourselves, we need to proceed with extreme caution. The dynamics of everyday family life also have a way of repeating themselves.”
    —Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)

    “The abdication of Belief
    Makes the Behavior small—
    Better an ignis fatuus
    Than no illume at all.”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “No one thinks anything silly is suitable when they are an adolescent. Such an enormous share of their own behavior is silly that they lose all proper perspective on silliness, like a baker who is nauseated by the sight of his own eclairs. This provides another good argument for the emerging theory that the best use of cryogenics is to freeze all human beings when they are between the ages of twelve and nineteen.”
    —Anna Quindlen (20th century)
